Charming city filled with history

You can go on a pleasant stroll in Veere. Old streets, stately trading houses, the Grote Kerk and the famous Town Hall: Veere was once a mighty trading city. The richly laden ships have since given way to yachts, and is a charming place where tourists love to come. A city stroll over the old city walls is an experience all by itself. In the centre, you'll find quaint shops and cosy restaurants. The various ports of Veere are also a good starting point for exploring Lake Veerse.

An oasis for water sports lovers

Lake Veerse is a paradise for water sport lovers. Surfing, canoeing, sailing, water skiing, diving or swimming: it's all possible.

Mooring on one of the many landing stages is highly recommended. Many of the nature reserves in or around Lake Veerse can be discovered on their own. Tip: don't forget your binoculars, there are lots of birds to spot!
