Campsites in Zeeland: Why is camping in Zeeland so popular?

The Dutch province of Zeeland consists of several peninsulas, so in addition to long North Sea beaches, you will also find beaches on quieter inland waters. And what screams holiday more than sand between your toes and the wind in your hair? Camping Zeeland is a good idea not only in summer, but also in winter, spring or autumn. The holiday feeling is enhanced when you stay at a mini campsite in Zeeland in the middle of nature.

Pitch your tent and spend a few relaxing days among the sheep and chickens on a mini camping in Zeeland. Wake up to the sunrise and have breakfast in front of your camper with a beautiful view of the countryside.

Camping Renesse: A popular destination for water sports enthusiasts

With 21 kilometres of beach, Camping Renesse is a very popular destination for both nature lovers and water sports enthusiasts. Whether couples, families, senior citizens or young beach guests, everyone will get their money's worth here. With the beaches Watergat and Scholderlaan, which offer very good conditions for (kite)surfing with wind and waves, Camping Renesse is particularly popular with water sports fans. The Brouwersdam is just a stone's throw from Renesse.

Camping Domburg: century-old spa with clean beaches

Domburg's beaches are awarded the Blue Flag every year and are among the cleanest beaches in the Netherlands. With many beach pavilions and wooden planks that allow beach access even with prams, Camping Domburg is especially popular with families with young children. But culture lovers also get their money's worth on a camping holiday in Domburg. You can walk the Mondriaan Route, stroll through the idyllic centre of Domburg or visit the 28-metre-high water tower. 

Camping Zoutelande: with the South Beach a popular destination in all seasons

Together with the coastal towns of Dishoek and Westkapelle, Zoutelande forms the Zelländische Riviera. Partly because of its south-facing sandy beaches, camping Zoutelande is a good idea in all seasons. While you can sunbathe and swim in the North Sea here in the summer, in the cooler seasons you can wrap up warm and enjoy the fresh sea air or warm up in one of the many beach pavilions and look out over the North Sea with a "Koffie Verkeerd" (latte). The small village of Biggekerke is only a stone's throw away and is very interesting for anyone looking for "Camping Zoutelande".

Camping Westkapelle: seaside resort in the north-west of the Walcheren peninsula

Like Renesse, Camping Westkapelle is also very popular with water sports enthusiasts. While Westkapelle is popular with bathers in the summer, a camping holiday in Westkapelle also has its advantages during the cooler seasons. Although dogs are allowed on the beach all year round, they can also run free during the day from October to April. Camping Westkapelle is therefore also worth considering for a camping holiday with a dog.

Camping Ostkapelle: seaside resort with old farms

You would think that Oostkapelle is right next to Westkapelle. But this is not the case, because if you choose camping Oostkapelle, you first have to cycle through the spa town of Domburg to get to Westkapelle. With clean, wide beaches, nature reserves, a typical Dutch village centre and the Malrian dunes, Camping Oostkapelle is a good idea for anyone who wants to visit the Habinsel Walcheren.

Camping Cadzand: health resort near the Belgian border

Located in the south of the province of Zeeland, the spa town of Cadzand borders Belgium. Like Camping Domburg, Camping Cadzand is very popular with campers looking for clean sandy beaches and fresh sea air. However, Camping Cadzand is also worth considering for gourmets. Because on Boulevard De Wielingen you will find the starred restaurant Pure C by top chef Sergio Herman. Give your camping cooker a break and treat yourself to an unforgettable culinary experience.

Camping in Zeeland by the sea: natural mini campsites near the beach

Although the hinterland of the province of Zeeland with picturesque towns such as Middelburg is also worth a trip, most camping holidaymakers are looking for 'Camping Zeeland directly by the sea'. And for good reason: with its long, wide sandy beaches, Zeeland is a very popular destination with water sports enthusiasts, sun worshippers and those who like to walk along the North Sea beach with a cap and scarf even during the cooler seasons. If you were originally looking for "Camping Zeeland directly by the sea" but still prefer to spend the night on the water instead of just by the water, you've come to the right place. This campsite on the Versemeer offers a very special camping experience.
