Veerse Meer
A long, narrow lake formed when the Delta Works dam cut off a bay. Its calm waters are ideal for sailing, kayaking, family splashing and cycling around the lake.
Veerse Meer is about 22 km long. After the Veerse Dam was completed in 1961, the former bay became a brackish lake. It has many small islands where sailboats can stop for a picnic. Beaches, marinas and campsites line the shores, and in Veere and Kamperland you can rent boats or take sailing lessons. On the north side, next to the Veerse Dam, there is a North Sea beach, making this a holiday area that offers both lake and sea.
