I would say it is not as bad as people say, but would probably not call it a hidden gem.
it used to literaly be know as “reine des plages”
Not quite hidden I would say…
It has it’s qualities, the sea being the main one of course. Sadly the city also has become a playground for property developers who make it a contest to raise a new ugly apartment tower on a weekly basis.
Oh yes, very hidden, just like Dinant lmao
I live there and can agree it is a gem.
Wait for the next sunny week-end and tell me if it is still hidden and still a gem.
Mooie foto’s
Hidden? Are you for real? XD
Lived there when I was young. Sadly over the years it has lost its charm due to certain circumstances
So hidden it’s the biggest city on the Belgian coast
Should’ve said that its not getting enough attention. I find Bruges and some small cities too overrated
When I think of de zee, I think Oostende
Since at least the 80 ties it has been a place that draws in the lowest of the low soft white underbelly of French and belgian society. Do some research
Sea, beach, and average Belgian city next to the beach.
De luchthaven om weg te vliegen?
“hidden”
“gem”
Does Belgium need to get back to its roots? Not hearing the love
The first and last time I swam in Ostend, a turd was swimming with me.
Disagree. All concrete and then just sand. Plus, if I am not mistaken, there is a statu of Leopold 2 right next to the beach. Guy is an utter embarrassment.
No picture of the perfect gem that is the concrete jungle? Belgian coast is disgusting, just concrete buildings about as nice as commie blocks everywhere.
I get what this post means but its the largest city on the Belgian cost and one of the largest cores in West-Flanders. Its not really hidden, although I can agree that its a bit of a gem. Not as grand as Ghent or Bruges imo but still a smaller gem with its beautifull and iconic locations.
