Interesting facts about this location
Oostduinkerke
Oostduinkerke is a popular seaside resort in the Belgian province of West Flanders. The name Oostduinkerke translates as 'East Dunkirk'. The town originally shared its name with the French city of Dunkirk; therefore, in the 13th century, 'Oost-' was added to its name to avoid confusion with its French counterpart. Oostduinkerke is part of Koksijde, which also includes St-Idesbald and Wulpen. Oostduinkerke lies amidst a dune area (approximately 2.4 km²), which is now a protected nature reserve.
