What a surprise! Zeeland turned out to be beautiful. And then we only saw Veere, Zierikzee and Deltapark Neeltje Jans. That tastes like more. For now, I can only look back from Colombia and give you tips, but I will definitely return to that special part of the Netherlands to see more. <strong>Read about what we did during our weekend in Zeeland, what wondrous Hawaiian-eating discovery we made and who said to me in amazement &#8220;oh you&#8217;re much smaller than I imagined!&#8221;.<\/strong> I also tell you what there is to see and do at Neeltje Jans and whether this outing is actually worth the money of a visit. Looking for a nice weekend getaway in the Netherlands? Zeeland <em>it is<\/em>!<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<hr>\n<h2>Why is Zeeland so special?<\/h2>\n<hr>\n<p>Zeeland, that special province in the southwestern part of Holland, near the Belgian border. Consisting of <strong>peninsulas, islands and lots of water<\/strong>, Zeeland is perhaps best known for the 1953 <strong>flood disaster<\/strong> and the <strong>storm surge barrier<\/strong> that was subsequently built to prevent another disaster. Zeeland is the place to admire these extraordinary Delta Works and even see them inside.<\/p>\n<p>With its (peninsular) islands and abundance of water, Zeeland has a special <em>feel<\/em>. <strong>A combination of vast nature, historic cities, white beaches, green dunes, porpoises and seals, long bridges and many ports.<\/strong> A place you really must have seen in the Netherlands, if only because of its history. The ideal weekend getaway.<\/p>\n<p>It impressed me, Zeeland. It is truly a unique piece of the Netherlands. Like not being in Holland. And exactly that is perhaps what makes Zeeland so popular with tourists.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-31276 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-full'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Fietstour-Zierikzee-stedentrip-Nederland.jpg' data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Fietstour-Zierikzee-stedentrip-Nederland.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Bike tour Zierikzee city break Netherlands\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Fietstour-Zierikzee-stedentrip-Nederland.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Fietstour-Zierikzee-stedentrip-Nederland-744x496.jpg 744w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Fietstour-Zierikzee-stedentrip-Nederland-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Fietstour-Zierikzee-stedentrip-Nederland-420x280.jpg 420w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Fietstour-Zierikzee-stedentrip-Nederland-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Fietstour-Zierikzee-stedentrip-Nederland-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Fietstour-Zierikzee-stedentrip-Nederland-1170x780.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Fietstour-Zierikzee-stedentrip-Nederland-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Fietstour-Zierikzee-stedentrip-Nederland-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h2>Veere: Scottish history in Zeeland<\/h2>\n<hr>\n<p>We began our weekend getaway in Veere. Our <strong>first stop in Zeeland<\/strong>, where we stayed from lunch until late afternoon. A picturesque village full of tourists. Which is not very strange, because Veere is beautiful.<\/p>\n<p>In the 13th century, Veere originated as the hamlet of Kampvere. However, it was not until the 16th century that Veere flourished as a town, when <strong>Veere became the staple of Scottish wool<\/strong>. Something you can still see in the many stores that sell wool. At that time, a Scottish colony settled in Veere. Although the city lost the staple right for wool in the year 1799, <strong>Veere remained the most important European city for the economy of Scotland<\/strong>. Today, you can still visit Scottish homes.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-31276 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-full'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Weekendje-weg-Zeeland-bezoek-dorpje-Veere.jpg' data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Weekendje-weg-Zeeland-bezoek-dorpje-Veere.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Weekend getaway Zeeland visit village of Veere\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Weekendje-weg-Zeeland-bezoek-dorpje-Veere.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Weekendje-weg-Zeeland-bezoek-dorpje-Veere-744x496.jpg 744w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Weekendje-weg-Zeeland-bezoek-dorpje-Veere-420x280.jpg 420w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Weekendje-weg-Zeeland-bezoek-dorpje-Veere-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Weekendje-weg-Zeeland-bezoek-dorpje-Veere-1170x780.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Weekendje-weg-Zeeland-bezoek-dorpje-Veere-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Weekendje-weg-Zeeland-bezoek-dorpje-Veere-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>What is there to see in Veere?<\/h3>\n<p>Veere is incredibly fun to walk through, enjoy a nice lunch on a terrace or store for candy or wool.

Oosterscheldekering storm surge barrier<\/h2>\n<hr>\n<p>Now that I was finally in Zeeland I wanted to see the Delta Works. And what better and closer way to do that than from Neeltje Jans? A fun outing with children, your partner or the whole family during a weekend getaway in Zeeland.<\/p>\n<h3>Delta park Neeltje Jans explained<\/h3>\n<p>The <strong>Delta Works<\/strong> is a <strong>defense system<\/strong> to protect the Dutch provinces of Zeeland, southern South Holland and North Brabant <strong>from high water from the sea<\/strong>. This is necessary since these areas have a centuries-long history of floods and levee breaches. The first plan for the Delta Works was presented in 1942, but ultimately the 1953 Flood Disaster was the deciding factor for its actual implementation.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Delta Plan<\/strong> meant<strong> shortening the coastline by some 700 kilometers<\/strong> by building closed and permeable dams between the islands of South Holland and Zeeland.<\/p>\n<p>The Delta Plan consists of <strong>13 projects<\/strong>, of which the Oosterscheldekering storm surge barrier, the Brouwers Dam and the Haringvliet Dam are perhaps the best known.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-11 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-11 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-11 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-11 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-11' class='gallery galleryid-31276 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-full'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/De-Deltawerken-Zeeland-van-binnen-zien.jpg' data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/De-Deltawerken-Zeeland-van-binnen-zien.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Seeing the inside of the Delta Works Zeeland\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/De-Deltawerken-Zeeland-van-binnen-zien.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/De-Deltawerken-Zeeland-van-binnen-zien-744x496.jpg 744w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/De-Deltawerken-Zeeland-van-binnen-zien-420x280.jpg 420w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/De-Deltawerken-Zeeland-van-binnen-zien-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/De-Deltawerken-Zeeland-van-binnen-zien-1170x780.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/De-Deltawerken-Zeeland-van-binnen-zien-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/De-Deltawerken-Zeeland-van-binnen-zien-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Oosterscheldekering<\/h4>\n<p>At a length of no less than 9 kilometers, the <strong>Oosterschelde Dam<\/strong> is the longest of the entire Delta Works.

The latter because during my little research beforehand I read mostly negative experiences about it, that it would not be worth it. We did see the <strong>Delta Works<\/strong> inside, <strong>watched<\/strong> the movies and did the <strong>Delta Experience<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I found the Delta Works and the Delta Experience impressive.<\/strong> Incredibly interesting to see this huge and extraordinary structure from inside and learn how it works. The <strong>Delta Experience<\/strong> is a room you go into and experience the Flood Disaster with sounds, wind, voices, light and film. Or well, more or less of course because it&#8217;s never like it really was, but it gives an impression and I found this very worthwhile.<\/p>\n<p>Also walking through the park with the<strong> beautiful views<\/strong> was very nice.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to these highlights, there were some <strong>things I found less interesting<\/strong>. For example, the park is quite <strong>outdated<\/strong>, the <strong>food in the restaurant is expensive<\/strong> for what you get, and the <strong>informative films<\/strong> about the Delta Works and the Flood Disaster were so <strong>old and boring that they almost put me<\/strong> to sleep. As if those films were made in the 1980s and never updated.

But <strong>other than the Delta Works, the Delta Experience and walking around there with the beautiful views, I didn&#8217;t find it very special otherwise and expensive for what you get<\/strong>. I&#8217;m sure Neeltje Jans is super fun for a day out with kids. After all, there is much for children to do. Don&#8217;t you have kids and don&#8217;t you necessarily need to see the Storm Surge Barrier inside?

Especially if you are going with children, I would definitely take the whole day out. If you only come for the Oosterscheldekering, the Delta Experience, the informative films and a walk around the park, half a day is enough.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-18 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-18 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-18 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-18 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-18' class='gallery galleryid-31276 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-full'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Windmolens-Neeltje-Jans-Zeeland.jpg' data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Windmolens-Neeltje-Jans-Zeeland.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Windmills Neeltje Jans Zeeland\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Windmolens-Neeltje-Jans-Zeeland.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Windmolens-Neeltje-Jans-Zeeland-744x496.jpg 744w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Windmolens-Neeltje-Jans-Zeeland-420x280.jpg 420w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Windmolens-Neeltje-Jans-Zeeland-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Windmolens-Neeltje-Jans-Zeeland-1170x780.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Windmolens-Neeltje-Jans-Zeeland-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Windmolens-Neeltje-Jans-Zeeland-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h2>A weekend in Zierikzee: a must-see in Zeeland<\/h2>\n<hr>\n<p>After Neeltje Jans, we returned to Zierikzee and took a fantastic evening bike ride through the town and its surroundings.

It could hardly be otherwise with 500 monuments. Walking or biking through Zierikzee, you will see <strong>an impressive collection of walls, city gates, harbors, churches, towers and windmills<\/strong>. However, this <strong>monument city<\/strong> has much more to offer than history. Think picturesque squares, cute boutiques and cozy restaurants. You can also shop like the best here.<\/p>\n<p>Although Zierikzee has had <strong>city rights since the year 1248<\/strong>, its population is only <strong>11,630<\/strong>. This gives a friendly and cozy atmosphere, making Zierikzee ideal for a city trip of a day or weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Not only is the city of Zierikzee great for a visit, but the <strong>surrounding area is also worth to explore<\/strong>. For example, visit <strong>Westenschouwen<\/strong>, a beautiful nature reserve with forests and beach and beautiful views of the Oosterscheldekering storm surge barrier. In addition, from Zierikzee you can <strong>take wonderful bike rides<\/strong> across the island along the water. If you&#8217;re lucky you&#8217;ll see porpoises. Enjoy the impressive views, not only over the water, but the view of the <strong>Zeeland Bridge<\/strong> is fantastic.<\/p>\n<p>In short: if you&#8217;re looking for a fun weekend or day out, consider Zierikzee.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-20 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-20 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top:

Glazed, we looked at her as if she were speaking Chinese. Pok\u00e9 Bowl&#8230; what is that? Totally surprised that we don&#8217;t know what Pok\u00e9 Bowl is, she explained. Unfortunately, <strong>not yet known in Colombia<\/strong> and the Pok\u00e9 Bowl restaurant we found after our trip looks nothing like the Pok\u00e9 Bowl we know from the Netherlands, not even sushi rice. Anyway&#8230; So Pok\u00e9 Bowl it became. In restaurant <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zeeuwseschatkamer-zierikzee.nl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>The Treasury of Zeeland<\/strong><\/a> <strong>on the waterfront in Zierikzee<\/strong>. I can really recommend it to everyone. Not only an incredibly nice restaurant in a beautiful location, but that food! You understand that I was an instant Pok\u00e9 Bowl fan and ate it as much as possible after Zierikzee.

And, of course, way too big for a weekend trip. But that doesn&#8217;t matter, you have to start somewhere. We visited Veere, Zierikzee and Neeltje Jans. Although Zierikzee is not as well known as Middelburg, especially for a vacation in Zeeland, it is still a great base from which to explore Zeeland.<\/p>\n<h3>Where did we stay in Zeeland?<a href=\"https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Vakantie-met-pubers-Nederland-tips.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-22193\" src=\"https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Vakantie-met-pubers-Nederland-tips-420x861.jpg\" alt=\"Vacations with adolescents Netherlands tips\" width=\"300\" height=\"615\"><\/a><\/h3>\n<p>We stayed during our weekend with the incredibly sweet and fun Anne, known for her travel blog <a href=\"https:\/\/vakantiemetpubers.nl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Vacations with Teenagers<\/strong><\/a>. Her adolescents were not there, so there was a bed left for us. After working with Anne for so long, we finally met for the first time. Always funny to hear for the umpteenth time,<strong>&#8220;oh, you are much smaller than I imagined you to be!&#8221;<\/strong> Indeed, in terms of height, I fit right in between Colombians \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p>In any case: <strong>Anne lives in Zierikzee and knows Zeeland like the back of her hand<\/strong>. So she took us on an insanely beautiful <strong>bike ride<\/strong> across the island through Zierikzee and along the water, and it was Anne who introduced us to <strong>Pok\u00e9 Bowl<\/strong> for the first time.<\/p>\n<p>Anne wrote the blog <a href=\"https:\/\/vakantiemetpubers.nl\/de-leukste-tips-voor-een-dagje-zierikzee\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>The best tips for a day out in Zierikzee<\/strong><\/a>, should you want to know more about surely one of the most beautiful towns in Holland.<\/p>\n<p><strong>As Anne is not a hotel, here you will find <a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/searchresults.en.html?city=-2156385&amp;aid=1132085&amp;no_rooms=1&amp;group_adults=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">all hotels in Zierikzee<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>How much time do you need for Zeeland?<\/h3>\n<p>As long as you want to! Also depends on what your goal is. A weekend break in Zeeland is ideal for getting a breath of fresh air and visiting beautiful towns. If you want to take long bike rides, see more towns and go to the beach, you can easily spend 2 weeks here.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-23 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-23 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-23 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-23 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-23' class='gallery galleryid-31276 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-full'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Stranden-van-Zeeland.jpg' data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Stranden-van-Zeeland.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Beaches of Zeeland\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Stranden-van-Zeeland.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Stranden-van-Zeeland-744x496.jpg 744w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Stranden-van-Zeeland-420x280.jpg 420w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Stranden-van-Zeeland-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Stranden-van-Zeeland-1170x780.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Stranden-van-Zeeland-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.besabine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Stranden-van-Zeeland-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>What else is there to see in Zeeland?<\/h3>\n<p>A lot, including ancient Domburg, capital Middelburg and peninsula Walcheren.
