The Outsider Coast organises since 1996 a wide range of outdoor activities. Both for groups as for individual persons !

What does Nieuwpoort have in common with Namur, Brussels, Antwerp, Ghent, Kortrijk and Bruges? In all of these cities you can find a statue of Albert I, the Soldier King. These bronze riders mark the way the German army invaded Belgium in 1914, up until Nieuwpoort where they came to a grinding halt. This was achieved through the power of seawater and the smart coordination of the sluices and locks. But water wasn't only an ally, it condemned Nieuwpoort to a crueler fate, the complete destruction of the city as first city at the front. A hundred years later the monument to King Albert I is a serene place in a beautiful landscape, surrounded by water. The ideal place to tell the story of the inundation. This happens in the hyper-modern visitor center 'Westfront Nieuwpoort' right under the 2500m² terrace of the monument, with a polyvalent inner circle and 3 exposition wings.

you can visit the momument around, see also the Ganzepoot locks, see the momument for the British soldiers, see an WW2 bunker and visit the museum under the monument. There you can access the elevator to go on the monument and have a fantasic view on the Flemish Low countries, Nieuwpoort and the historical Yser valley.
