Knokke-Heist

The landscape around Knokke-Heist is a low North Sea coast of broad beaches and dunes, which has shaped both the urban form and local economy. This municipality brings together the seaside districts of Knokke, Heist, Duinbergen and Het Zoute, where a long promenade, apartment-lined seafronts and dune reserves mark the Belgian shoreline. East of town, Zwin Nature Park protects a tidal area of mudflats and salt marshes on the Dutch border, important for migratory birds. Knokke’s Casino preserves René Magritte’s 1953 mural Le Domaine enchanté, a major work of Belgian surrealism. The coastal tram also terminates here after following Belgium’s coast.
