Visitors
Our modern yacht club is located in Blankenberge, halfway between the French and Dutch borders, 3 miles south of Zeebrugge.
What was originally a real fishing port (see further on our site for a brief history) is now a modern marina, within walking distance of the sea wall, the beach and the city center. The central location of our marina makes it unique on the Flemish coast. And our seaside city offers something for everyone. The well-sheltered marina is easy to walk to. Once through the half mile channel between both pier walls you will find our registration jetty immediately after rounding our harbor office on the starboard side. We have almost 350 berths at jetties 2 to 8: spacious boxes with finger piers, power and water supply. WIFI is available on all jetties. Our modern clubhouse houses our offices, a spacious sanitary block and a culinary restaurant 'CABO' with a large terrace and a beautiful panoramic view of the harbor channel and the marina. And in the immediate vicinity you will also find everything you need to make your stay pleasant: catering, bakery, butcher, supermarket, port companies (sail maker, water sports shop, etc.). A short walk or bike ride (you can reserve a bike with us) will take you to the heart of our beautiful seaside city.
VVW Blankenberge is the proud holder of the prestigious “4 Gold Anchors” award and the Blue Flag. We also received the 'Sustainable Coastal Project 2014' award.
We try to work environmentally conscious and energy-friendly. Therefore, be frugal with water and electricity consumption. The drinking water on the jetties may not be used to rinse your vessel.
