Once you arrive in Nieuwpoort, a visit to the Vismijn is certainly a fascinating experience. Fishing is simply in the DNA of the city of Nieuwpoort. A guide takes you through the Fish Market and past the fishing boats. End your visit with a fresh Rodenbach while you get started peeling gray shrimps.

Nieuwpoort was an important fishing port on the Belgian coast from the 12th century. Over the centuries, however, the port of Nieuwpoort has had many heights and lows and often changed function.
