"Undoubtedly the finest beach in Belgium, this stunning location boasts crystal-clear waters, pristine white sand, and a bustling shopping district just a stone's throw away. What's more, it's conveniently linked to the longest tram route in the world, making access a breeze. On the balmy days we visited, the water was just the right temperature for some fun in the sun. Howev..."

"Ah, the beautiful sandy beach 🏖️, where the salty sea water is so clean ⛵ that you can see right through it. It's a shame though, that the only problem in this city seems to be the car parkings. But hey, who needs a car when you have a stunning beach to enjoy?"
