To commemorate the fishermen lost at sea, a sixteen-metre high concrete cross designed by Bruges architect Jozef Viérin was already erected in the fishing port in 1936.
The 75-minute port cruise takes in the naval base, the Pierre Vandamme Lock (one of the largest locks in the world), the gas terminal, the wind turbine park, the ‘tern’ island, the cruise ships and the dredging vessels.
