BELGIUM- 5 days

Ostend is the largest and most popular resort of the Belgian North Sea Coast. The fine sandy beaches stretch for miles on either side of the harbour and the wide pedestrianised Albert I Promenade is ideal for a leisurely stroll. At the centre of the resort, many of the streets are also pedestrianised and offer a variety of shops, cafés and restaurants. Another  attraction of the Belgian coast is the tramway, which runs along the coastline from the border of France to its eastern border with Holland.
