The most surrealistic beach in town, with a view on the Port of Antwerp, swimming not allowed though. Located at Linkeroever. To get to Linkeroever, you have to take the tunnel under the river. This is an experience itself! Take the old moving staircase, same as it was in 1933 or the old elevator. From Linkeroever you have a spectacular view on the skyline of Antwerp.
