3. 4.5 Vrouwenpolder Beach (87 reviews)
   - Great nude beach, popular with Belgian, Dutch and German gays.
   Beaches
   
   
   Vrouwenpolder Beach has also a naturist section. It's very popular with Belgians as they don't have anything similar in Belgium. And especially gays are fond of it. There's always some cruising around but be aware, it's not allowed to walk in the dunes. But as the distance between 2 warning signs is rather large, you can always pretend you're not really in the dunes. See more..

5. 4.0 The Town Hall Museum Vierschaar (58 reviews)
   - A picturesque touristic town on the lake "Veerse Meer"
   Speciality Museums
   
   
   As Veere, at the island of Walcheren, is not far from where we live we have visited this lovely town several times. Veere is a tourist town on the "Veerse Meer" lake but once it was very mighty. Ships from Scotland once moored in large numbers because Veere was the staple port for Scottisch wool in the 16th century. A Scottish colony was established here at that time. Veere played an important economic role for Scotland in those days. The townhouse is a museum but there is not very much to see inside. Veere itself is small but very picturesque with a number of shops, restaurants and terraces. In the summertime there are lots of touristic events. See more..
   
6. 4.0 Museum Veere (46 reviews)
   - Must see museum in Veere
   Wednesday: 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Spent 1-2 hours Speciality Museums • Monuments & Statues
   
   
   Museum Veere is established in two beautiful historic buildings: The Scottish Houses along de quay and the monumental City Hall on the Market. Together they bring the stirring history of this small city of Veere to live. The unique 16th century statues that once adorned the façade of the City Hall are part of our collection and on display in our ‘Statue hall’. The famous gilded goblet of Maximilian shines in the old council chamber. Veere was once the centre of the profitable wool trade between Scotland and the Low Countries. After considerable effort the town won staple-rights on Scottish wool in 1541, meaning that the goods had to be made available for purchase there for a set time before being allowed to go on sale elsewhere. This important and profitable trade right encouraged Scottish merchants to establish themselves in Veere permanently. See more..
   
7. 4.0 Terra Maris (44 reviews)
   - Nice visit
   Speciality Museums
   
   
   Visited not the museum but only the restaurant. Food was of high standard. Normally the salmon is not that good, really! Tera Maris is located in a “hidden” area; not so many tourists visit. Please try to walk through the area and visit the quit and clean beach. It’s venue is in the vicinity of the castle “Kasteel Westhove”. Price is somewhat on the high side. See more..

   In de Grote Kerk komt erfgoed op een betoverende manier tot leven. Via 3D soundscapes, wervelende projecties en caleidoscopische animaties. Stap zelf de geschiedenis in en schrijf mee aan nieuwe verhalen. De Grote Kerk Veere is een stenen reus in een piepklein stadje. Met ramen van baksteen. En grafzerken als vensterbanken. De kerk zit vol met raadsels en geheimen. Waarom is het gebouw nooit afgemaakt? Wat is er hier allemaal gebeurd? Stap zelf in de geschiedenis. En ontdek het verhaal van Mary, de verdwenen Schotse prinses. Onderzoek de legende van de Veerse mummiekat. Luister mee met de koortsdromen van een gewonde Franse soldaat. Laat een eigen herinnering achter aan de schrijftafel van Nescio. En duik diep in de duizelingwekkende penseelstreken van beroemde schilders. Word ook verliefd op Veere, in de Grote Kerk. See more..
