Golfclub Oostburg
Oostburg
Located in Oostburg in the Zeeland region, close to the Belgian border and the North Sea coast, Golfclub Oostburg — also known as De Brugse Vaart — offers a refined parkland golf experience with strong access from both the Netherlands and Belgium. It is a useful addition to golf itineraries around Bruges, Knokke, Zeeland and northern Belgium.
The 18-hole course is a par-73 layout measuring around 6,402 metres from the back tees. It has a classic parkland feel, with mature trees, shrubs, water features and shaped fairways creating a varied round. The course is relatively flat, but the water hazards and tighter sections mean accuracy and course management still matter.
Golfclub Oostburg is known for its welcoming atmosphere and stylish clubhouse, with restaurant facilities and terraces overlooking the course. The club describes itself as one of the most attractive courses in the Benelux, with a warm, family-style feel for members and guests.
For golf holidays, Oostburg works well as a cross-border option. It gives golfers a quieter Dutch countryside round while still being close to popular Belgian destinations such as Bruges and Knokke, as well as coastal towns like Cadzand.

About The Area
Oostburg sits in Zeeuws-Vlaanderen, the Dutch region tucked between the North Sea coast and the Belgian border. It is a quiet, practical base for golfers who want countryside, coast and easy cross-border variety rather than a busy city break. The setting is flat, open and typically Dutch, with wide skies, cycling routes and quick access to seaside towns such as Cadzand and Belgian favourites like Knokke and Bruges.
The main golf venue is Golfclub Oostburg – Domein De Brugse Vaart, an 18-hole course just outside the town. The club describes itself as one of the most beautiful golf courses in the Benelux, welcoming members and guests in a warm, family-style atmosphere. LeadingCourses notes that the championship course is over 6,000 metres long, with attractive water features and enough technical challenge for one or more days of golf. It is a good fit for golfers who enjoy a spacious parkland-style layout where water, positioning and approach play matter.
Oostburg also works well as part of a wider Zeeland and northern Belgium golf itinerary. LeadingCourses lists several courses in or near Oostburg, with Royal Zoute Golf Club highlighted as one of the strongest nearby 18-hole options. That gives golfers the chance to mix relaxed Dutch golf with a more prestigious Belgian coastal round.
Off the course, Oostburg is understated but useful. Zeeland’s official tourism site highlights local options such as the Ledeltheater, cycling through historic surroundings, events and the town’s water tower. The town also borders Het Groote Gat nature area, adding walking and quiet countryside to the mix.
The best time to visit is April to October, with late spring and early autumn ideal for comfortable golf. For golfers seeking calm Dutch countryside, easy coastal access and the option to cross into Belgium, Oostburg is a quietly handy base.
