The landscape

Separated only by lakes, rivers, and canals, behind the largest and busiest port in the world lies a green island where tranquility and space define the daily scenery. The expansive polders of Voorne-Putten form a peaceful landscape with picturesque views extending to the horizon. Vast dunes and grasslands, kilometers-long dikes, intricately shaped creeks, and plenty of water shape the landscape here. A network of ditches, canals, and waterways traverses the terrain. The numerous sea and polder dikes attest to the gradual reclamation of land from the sea. Due to their elevated position, these dikes offer beautiful views of the open landscape. The distinctive delta landscape of the Zeeland and South Holland islands is primarily recognizable in the southern part of the island. There lies a dynamic delta nature reserve with creeks, mudflats, marshes, and reed beds.
