Veerse Meer - Nature

Veerse Meer - 1

The Veerse Meer is a nature reserve located northeast of Walcheren and south of Noord-Beveland. The lake is a popular watersports destination for sailors, sport fishermen, and scuba divers. There is also an opportunity for surfing and waterskiing through a cable ski facility, and there is a canoe harbor at De Piet.

Around the lake, there are thousands of moorings for pleasure boats. Most of the islands and various shores have pontoons for leisure craft.

There are several diving spots, including ones north of Wolphaartsdijk and on the west side of Veere. Approximately twelve thousand trout are released into the lake annually, half of which are rainbow trout and the other half are brown trout.
