Where personal attention goes hand in hand with the most gorgeus vacation houses.
The island Goeree Overflakkee is completely surrounded by water and lies on the border between South Holland and Zeeland. The island has the most hours of sunshine and the most kilometers of beaches, dunes, cycling and hiking trails and nature reserves such as the Kwadehoek. The beaches in Ouddorp are famous and have the blue flag which stands for clean and safe. On an autumn day just get a breath of fresh air or on a nice summer day to look for a dune pan and then to one of the beautiful beach pavilions for some food and drink (including Pole 10, Werelds, Strandclub Zee, Natural High).
The island has the Grevelingen lake on one side and the North Sea on the other, so there are so many possibilities to enjoy the water, sail or rent a boat and sail on the Grevelingen. At the Brouwersdam (known from Concert at Sea) you can swim, (kite) surf, dive, fish, sail, blokart and power kiting.
In the vicinity of Ouddorp there are nice villages and towns like Middelharnis, Goedereede, if you drive a bit further towards Zeeland you will come across Renesse, Burg Haamstede Zierikzee and Vlissingen. Rotterdam is about 45 minutes drive from Ouddorp.
The reason why so many people come to Ouddorp is the beach of course, kilometer after kilometer, from nature reserve De kwadehoek to the Brouwersdam. In some places you are all alone and you can even encounter seals. You can enjoy walking and cycling through the dunes over well-laid out hiking and biking trails.
If you are looking for beach pavilions then you can find everything from fancy to homey from Paal10 to Strandclub Zee. On the Brouwersdam you can find everything for water sports, from blokart to kite surfing. On the side of the Grevelingen lake you can visit the sail and surf school for a real water jump, there you have the possibility to go diving, windsurfing and sailing.
So there is something for everyone in and around Ouddorp, nature, peace, space, action, culture, restaurants, villages, shops and much more.
The island Goeree Overflakkee belongs to South Holland and is completely surrounded by water, so you can visit special places such as the Oosterscheldekering, Neeltje Jans and the watersnood (Flooding) museum, water is an important friend and in the past a formidable enemy of Goeree Overflakkee. The village of Stellendam has a fish auction and an active fishing fleet, on Friday you can visit the fish auction and could be followed by a visit to the seal sanctuary Aseal next to the Grevelingenmeer. Goedereede is known for its harbor, tower and beautiful historic buildings. On the surrounding islands you will find Middelburg, Vlissingen, Zierikzee, Domburg, Veere and Goes. Rotterdam is also nearby, 45 minutes by car and you are in the middle of Rotterdam! The Markthal is a very good place to start your visit to Rotterdam.
You can go in all directions, take your bike with you (or rent one with us), get your skates out of the closet, take your running shoes with you, find your diving suit, boat shoes, shorty, diving goggles, scoop and bucket. Of course for the cool and wet days your boots and raincoat, but given Ouddorp has many hours of sunshine also take your sunscreen and bath towel.
