Slikken van Flakkee
About this hidden gem
A rugged, expansive and partially wooded savannah landscape bordering the Grevelingenmeer on the island of Goeree-Overflakkee.
Why you really want to visit this place
Visiting this area is definitely worthwhile for the true nature lover as there are various walking and cycling routes. Animals such as herds of heck cattle, grazing fjord horses or a leap of deer can be admired here. But many birds like the lapwing and the avocet also breed here. And if you are lucky you might even spot a white-tailed eagle here. The glasswort turns purple/red in late summer, while the beautiful flowers bring that colour to the landscape in spring. Visit the wildlife observation posts or take an evening excursion with a guide.
