Koksijde: Eugenie Terlinckplein
Eugénie Terlinckplein occupies a section of Koksijde’s seafront on Belgium’s North Sea coast in West Flanders. It forms part of Koksijde-Bad, the resort district where a broad sandy beach and dune belt meet an urban promenade of cafés, shops and apartment buildings. The North Sea shapes local life, from beach recreation to the fishing heritage shared with nearby Oostduinkerke, known for its traditional horseback shrimp fishery. Inland, the Ten Duinen Abbey Museum preserves archaeological remains of a medieval Cistercian abbey, adding a historical layer to this maritime municipality. Koksijde’s shorefront has the compact, lived-in character of the Belgian coast, with walking and cycling integrated into movement along the sea.

Koksijde combines broad North Sea beaches with a dune-bound, low-rise character that reflects its position on Belgium’s Flemish coast. The shore gives way to protected dune terrain, including the Hoge Blekker reserve, where sand and marram grass set a distinctly coastal rhythm. At the Ten Duinen Abbey Museum and archaeological site, the remains of a medieval Cistercian abbey recall the community that once shaped this stretch of coast. Oostduinkerke, within the municipality, is known for horseback shrimp fishing, a tradition inscribed on UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage list.

Flanders occupies the low-lying northern half of Belgium. Its terrain runs from the North Sea coast and reclaimed polders to fertile river plains, with the Scheldt linking cities and ports before reaching the sea in the Netherlands. Dutch is the principal language, and the region's historic towns retain a strong civic identity: Bruges is known for its medieval centre, while Antwerp developed into one of Europe’s major port cities and a global diamond-trading centre. Flemish painting, lace-making and beer brewing remain central to the cultural story, alongside a contemporary design and food scene.

Belgium occupies a low-lying North Sea coastline and river plain in northwestern Europe. Dutch-speaking Flanders lies largely to the north, while French-speaking Wallonia reaches south towards the wooded Ardennes; Brussels is officially bilingual. The Scheldt and Meuse have long connected Belgian cities with the North Sea and continental Europe. Brussels’ Grand-Place, framed by ornate guildhalls and the Town Hall, is a UNESCO World Heritage site. Medieval Bruges retains canals and merchant architecture, while Antwerp remains a major port on the Scheldt. Belgian beer culture is recognised by UNESCO as intangible cultural heritage.
