Around
Ouddorp aan Zee
Beach
(15 min. cycling)
By bike to the beach, the nearest beach entrance to Bed & Broodje Ouddorp is beach entrance #
From our B&B you drive left onto the Oudelandseweg, then take the 2nd exit to the right onto the Klarebeekweg and drive all the way to the end; you will automatically arrive in the dune area. Continue past Zonnewende de Groenedijk campsite. After this you can turn left to the Noordweg, also called Ouddorp Beach; it is very quiet here; there are only public toilets; no beach tent. You can also turn left on the Groenedijk, this beach entrance is a little busier, because this is where the Bula beach bar serves delicious Mexican dishes.

Ouddorp Duin & Bij Marc
(15 min. cycling)
Want to take a break with your little one(s) when the weather is a bit less? Consider a visit to Ouddorp Duin, next to the reception you will find an indoor playground for children up to the age of 6; Here you can order a nice cup of coffee. Sometimes craft activities are also organized here.
The climbing dune at 'Bij Marc' is perfectly located on the terrace & square of Ouddorp Duin; lots of fun in a safe environment; perfect for lunch, drinks or dinner. Fun activities are regularly organized on the Strandplein.
Beach pavilion Paal 10
(15 min. cycling)
One of the nicest beach bars in Ouddorp? Especially beach pavilion Paal 10 (at beach entrance 4). A beautifully decorated terrace with a versatile menu and fast service. Since this summer you will also find great takeaway options on the beach itself. You will find a nice climbing frame for the kids, but the beach and dunes are of course a hit anyway.
Klepperstee swimming pond
(10 min. cycling)
At holiday park 'De Klepperstee' you will find this amazing swimming pond for all ages. Adjacent to Bistro Skal, where you can enjoy a cup of coffee, or lunch or dinner after a swim. Furthermore, a nice outdoor playground with air trampoline and also an indoor playground.
Bunkerroute 'De Punt'
(10 min. fietsen)
Near our B&B, there is a special walking route, fun with kids to visit the bunkers of Ouddorp. This bunker complex is part of the German defense line during the Second World War; this defense line extends from Northern Road to Spain. You will find this route just a 10-minute bike ride from our B&B houses
Bistro Skal
(15 min. cycling)
Nice, Scandinavian style restaurant at the holiday park 'De Klepperstee' with an easy yet versatile menu for lunch & dinner with a few vegetarian options. What is so nice here is that there is an indoor playground for the children and also a nice terrace adjacent to a beautiful swimming pond and playground with air trampoline...
Grevelingenmeer - catching crabs
(10 min. cycling)
Even when the weather is bad, it is nice to go to this beach near the Twins restaurant (formerly 'Dolle Beer'). You can ideally park directly on the beach, bring a landing net & bucket and catch crabs! The water is quite shallow; you can walk to the jetty. Water slowly deepens to about 1 meter. Definitely useful to take water shoes with you because of the oyster shells that are there.
Goat farm
The Mekkerstee
A visit to the Mekkerstee goat farm should definitely not be missed when you are in Ouddorp. On this cheese farm you will of course find goats, but also many other farm animals, a nice playground, a flower picking garden (May-September) and a small restaurant with pancakes and delicious goat's milk ice creams
Picking garden Bloemenliefde
Picking your own BLOOMON forest in a sea full of flowers... really a small party, every time... from about the beginning of June to the beginning of October you can find many different types of flowers in all kinds of colors and lengths. Owner Wilma regularly organizes fun workshops in the garden or in the shed.
Playground De Flipjes
Playground 'De Flipjes' has been a household name in Ouddorp and the surrounding area for decades. A nostalgic playground, not too big, but guaranteed a morning or afternoon of fun for children up to 10 years old. For the little ones there is a huge sandbox at the terrace. You can bring your own picnic or buy something simple from the vending machine. Costs are €2 per person
Beach theater
Wooden Cape
Various activities for children are organized throughout the year at the "Wooden Cape"; think of children's theater, making lanterns, puzzle tours, making chocolates and beach activities. There is also regular theater for adults in the evenings. Check www.houtenkaap.nl for the up-to-date activities agenda.
Cycling routes Goeree Overflakkee
The most beautiful cycling and walking routes can be found via the South Holland water board. Through the dunes, along the Grevelingenmeer or to the Brouwersdam; it's all nearby. There are also 3 MTB trails on the island
When renting an apartment, 2 (or 4 at B&B2) bicycles are included.
Things love
One of my favorite shops in Ouddorp, Dingenliefde. And as the name suggests, here you will find things that have been searched for and found with love. The owner goes to town and country (Netherlands, Belgium & France) for beautiful things, used and new. Beautiful tableware, cards, steel wire baskets, plants, fine bars of soap...a really nice, cozy shop, which I don't visit too often because it makes me so greedy.
Aqua Mundo - suptropisch zwemparadijs Port Zelande (10 automin)
The best outing for our children, perhaps not necessarily for us as parents, but worth it. Sutropical swimming at Port Zelande. With a Water Playhouse for the little ones, a wave pool, various slides and a real whitewater course. You can go to the swimming pool for fries and ice cream and you will also find other dining options in the 'Market Dome' complex.
Swimming at
'The Zeeland Coast'
This is a perfect swimming paradise for children aged 0 to 9 years. Small, well-organized and safe. There is a huge water structure with a slide, where children can play without actually being in the pool. On nice days, the outdoor area with water slides is also open; these are also wet, but do not end up in a swimming pool. There is also a pleasant terrace with a nice playground, a snack bar and restaurant

Culinary enjoyment at Wijnbar & Bistro Zus
This restaurant is a real asset to Ouddorp; a nice interior with sufficient space between the tables, a nice terrace, happy service (sisters & father are in the shop themselves) and, above all, good food. No before-and-after, but only beautifully presented intermediate dishes. Sometimes well-known classics such as Vitello Tonnato & Melon with Parma Ham, but also surprises such as Butterfish Carpaccio or Tuna Tataki. 'Zus is open from Tuesday to Sunday and from September to April Wednesday to Sunday

Beach Club Zee
Sometimes it seems like you are in the Mediterranean... this is one of those places where you can have that feeling. Almost at the end of the Brouwersdam, so actually in Zeeland, you will find Strandclub Zee. The service is smooth and cordial and the dishes are good. Nice seating areas both inside and outside and in winter they create an ice skating rink on the outside deck, which is very special by the sea.
Climbing and swimming at Duikstek de Koepel
This is one of those places that surprises; Not spectacular from a distance, but once you get started you can enjoy hours of fun on these elements in the water. You can bring your own picnic, but behind the dike there is also a classic snack bar ('De Koepel') for a snack. There are also toilets and showers.

Climbing forest Zeeland Heroes
High above the ground from tree to tree with ziplines, rope ladders, wobbly bridges and many other climbing elements. There are six different challenging courses in the climbing forest. It is a fun active experience of nature for families, schools and companies. It is a fun, adventurous and exciting day out for both young and old, as well as for novice and advanced climbers! Climbing forest Westerschouwen aan Zee, 100 meters from the North Sea beach.
![IMG_5826[1].JPG](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/8af69d_84625ea366d040e5b957a1b981e5ef35~mv2.jpg/v1/fill/w_49,h_66,al_c,q_80,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,blur_2,enc_auto/IMG_3166%5B1%5D_JPG.jpg)
RIB Seal Safari Grevelingenmeer
In the fast sailing area we let you experience what such a RIB/powerboat is capable of. (we do this at the start of the tour and when we return to the fast sailing area) Sailing at a leisurely (Safari) pace to the seals, we know exactly where they are and along the way we also see wild horses and various bird species on the many islands that we pass. This RIB tour takes about an hour and a half. Only on request and reservation in advance. Also very suitable for children.
![IMG_6061[1].JPG](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/8af69d_70484751f55b4cefbc32abe8057e7580~mv2.jpg/v1/fill/w_49,h_66,al_c,q_80,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,blur_2,enc_auto/IMG_6061%5B1%5D_JPG.jpg)
Mini golf & games Ouddorp Duin
At Ouddorp Duin holiday park your children can play while you drink a good cup of coffee or tea. There is a nice outdoor playground and in bad weather you can also go to the indoor playground (approximately up to 8 years). Since the summer of 2021, there is also a mini golf course, which is old-fashioned fun for the whole family
![IMG_5605[1].JPG](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/8af69d_70484751f55b4cefbc32abe8057e7580~mv2.jpg/v1/crop/x_0,y_591,w_3024,h_2850/fill/w_69,h_66,al_c,q_80,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,blur_2,enc_auto/IMG_6061%5B1%5D_JPG.jpg)
Aquapark Splash
Perhaps the best outdoor outing for our children (now 8 and 11 years old). This water park at Port Zelande is only open in the summer months and is very reasonably priced (1 hour 9 Euro). I personally thought 1 hour was more than enough, but I can imagine that slightly older children might go an hour longer. It's a lot of fun and also fun for a bachelor party, for example.

Spotting flamingos in Grevelingenmeer
You can spot real flamingos in the largest saltwater lake in Europe. Larger groups are mainly seen during the winter period from October to April, but there are also flamingos that are there all year round. The best chance that you will see them is a short drive towards the town of Battenoord & Oude Tonge
![IMG_3540[1].JPG](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/8af69d_22fcdfc02656471589f75bf775c3c270~mv2.jpg/v1/fill/w_49,h_66,al_c,q_80,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,blur_2,enc_auto/IMG_3540%5B1%5D_JPG.jpg)
Bird observatory 'Tij'
(25 cycling minutes)
Hidden at the back of Stellendam's marina you will find this architectural gem. Easily accessible by car and bicycle, this car park is at the beginning of this small nature reserve. In wet weather it is certainly advisable to wear boots. It is a short walk until you reach this now famous 'egg'. There are binoculars in both our houses, so don't forget to bring them!
![IMG_6038[1].JPG](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/8af69d_22fcdfc02656471589f75bf775c3c270~mv2.jpg/v1/crop/x_0,y_591,w_3024,h_2850/fill/w_69,h_66,al_c,q_80,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,blur_2,enc_auto/IMG_3540%5B1%5D_JPG.jpg)
Spotting seals at Brouwersdam
(15 cycling minutes)
Bijna aan het einde van de Brouwersdam vind je de 'Spuitsluis' welke het Grevelingenmeer verbind met de Noordzee. Door deze verbinding is hier veel vis te vinden, waardoor er ook zeer regelmatig een aantal zeehonden te spotten zijn. Zeker even stoppen als je toch op de Brouwersdam bent
Leensloep (Dirksland)
(12 automin._
What started as a hobby for Leen, sailing with his sloop on the Grevelingen, is now possible to rent his sloop for a day or half a day. Fun with the family, friends or of course romantically with your partner. This beautiful sloop can accommodate a maximum of 7 people. The sloop is located in Dirksland, which is about fifteen minutes by car from Ouddorp.
Yoga studio Ouddorp
(5 cycling minutes)
Bellatrix has more than 20 years of experience as a yoga teacher. Her yoga studio in the center of Ouddorp is just a 5-minute bike ride from the B&B. In the summer months she gives lessons outside 6 times a week (weather permitting, which is surprisingly often) at various locations in Ouddorp and the surrounding area, such as Natural High, De Klepperstee & Wind and sailing center Brouwersdam

Flakkee Fauna Park
(15 auto min.)
Crazy about animals? What a nice surprise we recently discovered in Nieuwe-Tonge, Faunapark Flakkee; this is not a petting zoo, but also not a mega zoo; although you will find a surprising amount here, from meerkats, foxes and porcupines to flamingos, guinea pigs and different types of owls & even wild cats
![IMG_4511[1].JPG](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/8af69d_a619b4030c494e4ea479f67b849a8c7b~mv2.png/v1/crop/x_0,y_453,w_1440,h_987/fill/w_70,h_48,al_c,q_85,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,blur_2,enc_auto/IMG_20220514_150110_661.png)
Rotterdam
(45 automin.)
I still included Rotterdam. I was born in this port city and I still enjoy coming there and I see that my guests, especially from Belgium & Germany, but also from Limburg & the Far North, always enjoy a day in Rotterdam, because it has so much to offer. and is a nice change from your holiday on the coast. And that is only 45 minutes from Ouddorp

Just a separate mention for this new addition to Ouddorp! From June 29, 2022 you can go wild on the pump track at Ouddorp Duin, this can be done with your scooter or with your mountain bike, BMX or bicycle, as long as you have a helmet on! You can rent this at toy store De Houten Aap.
