Zeebrugge : Profile

Docking

This is a busy ferry and naval port. Keep well clear of all the jetties. Watch for the signals indicating large tanker movements, when entry/exit is not allowed without permission.

The sea lock here gives access to the Boudewijnkannal which allows masted yachts to transit the 6 miles to Brugge.

The sailing club's yachthaven is to port, at the southern end of the harbour, beyond the Military Dock no. 2.
