The Westhinder Marina is located in Zeebrugge. From no other Belgian harbour can so many different destinations be reached in one single sailing day. Among these are all other Belgian harbours and Dunkirk. Beautiful Zeeland with its charming harbours is nearby

The Westhinder Marina started its existence in 2006 and received a modern building in 2011. Beside the sanitary section, the premise offers a multi function room that can be used for celebrations, events, etc. From there, the view on the harbour is unique. The marina has 50 fixed moorings for vessels up to 60 feet LOA, and unlimited draft. Visitors with larger units are welcome.

The marina ground, including its parking lot, is secured by fences and electronically controlled gates. The boats can be winterized ashore, but winterizing in the water is very safe too, as the harbour is well sheltered. Free parking space can easily be found in the vicinity. A paying fenced parking lot is available too, which can also be used to store a boat or a trailer.

The Westhinder Marina is located in the best section of Zeebrugge harbour and offers lots of advantages: Zeebrugge town is quite near, the tramway stop is at walking distance, Knokke and Blankenberge (railway station) can easily be reached. Close by, along the “Rederskaai”, restaurants and cafés are waiting for you. Food can be found at the “SPAR” (closed on Mondays), at the “Contact GB” and the “Delhaize”, all located on the “Kustlaan”.
