Itinerary description
Slightly modified version of "Cadzand bad - Knokke - Het Zwin" published by Westwandelingen on Wikiloc. Starting from Knokke station.
If it's too windy along the beach, take the dunes. Also, be prepared to be outnumbered by bikes coming back next to Het Zwin and along International Dijk. Once you turn into Graaf Leon Lippensdref, you can cross the road and walk in peace next to the fields. It's fairly long along these parts but gets more interesting when you turn into Kortestraat.
Be sure to check the tides before you go, so you can cross over to The Netherlands! http://www.meteo.be/meteo/view/en/123498-Tides.html You'll still probably have to take your shoes off though.

Beaucoup de passage fermé. Impossible de traverser l'eau pour contourner le Zwin. Nous avons du faire demi tour.... dommage....
