About Ostend

Ostend, a vibrant Belgian coastal city, is unmissable for its lively atmosphere, stunning beaches, and the iconic Casino-Kursaal, a majestic building that hosts various events and concerts. The city's unique 'pier to pier' beach promenade is a must-walk, offering breathtaking views of the North Sea and lively street performers. Travellers also adore Ostend's bustling fish market, where they can sample the day's catch. The best time to visit Ostend is during the summer months (June to August) when the weather is warm and sunny, and the beach parties are in full swing. For first-timers, we recommend taking the Ostend tram (number 7) from the central station to the beach, a convenient and scenic way to explore the city's coastline.
