Get a breath of fresh air and enjoy the largest National Park in the Netherlands, the Oosterschelde!
During a Boat Tour on the ship ‘Christiaan B’, you can enjoy magnificent views. With on one side views of the Storm Surge Barrier and on the other side the Zeeland Bridge and the huge Zierikzee Tower.
Seals & Porpoises
The Oosterschelde is known for its stunning (underwater) flora & fauna. The Oosterschelde is teeming with animals. There is a wide variety of fish, birds and plants, but the most famous inhabitants of the Oosterschelde are the Seals and Porpoises. These marine mammals are showing themselves more and more frequently. During the Boat Tour, you can spot Porpoises, especially when the weather is a bit calmer. You have to look carefully because, often you’ll only see the dorsal fin popping up. Seals are a little easier to find. In low water, you can see them sunbathing on the dry sandbanks.
You can only make the boat tour on the Oosterschelde in combination with a visit to the park. No refund if a boat tour is canceled due to unforseen circumstances such as bad weather or technical problem.
Booking is not possible for the boat tour. You will be registered for an available boat tour on arrival.
Some activities and/or parts of our park are time-bound, including our canal cruise. If you want to take full advantage of our day offer, we recommend arriving before noon.
