Breskens is a kitesurf spot on the south bank of the Westerschelde estuary, right at the entrance of the Western Scheldt, east of the Breskens ferry port. Flat, shallow water — ideal for freestyle and freeride. One of the most accessible Westerschelde spots.
Best with N/NW/NE wind. ⚠️ Shipping lane directly offshore — the Westerschelde is one of Europe's busiest shipping channels (container ships to Antwerp). Stay within the NKV zone. Pole rows (paalrijen) in the water — know their positions. Tide-dependent. April–June best season. Breskens–Vlissingen ferry terminal nearby (Westerschelde Ferry). Village amenities available.
