Overview

Paulina Polder is a kitesurf spot on the Westerschelde (Western Scheldt) estuary, near Biervliet/Terneuzen in Zeeland. Flat to choppy water, ideal for freestyle and freeride. One of the more sheltered Westerschelde spots. Works best with N, E or W wind — 2 hours either side of high tide.

⚠️ Stay strictly out of the shipping channel (major route to Antwerp). Pole rows in the water. Tide-dependent. Best season April–June. Intermediate level. Used by local kiters as a quiet alternative to busier spots. Beautiful polder landscape.
