The Coast Tram (Kusttram) is a unique way to explore the Belgian coastline, stretching 67 kilometers from De Panne near the French border to Knokke-Heist in the north. It passes through all the major seaside towns, including Ostend, Blankenberge, and Zeebrugge, offering stunning views of the North Sea and dunes. The tram runs frequently, making it easy to hop on and off at beaches, attractions, or restaurants. It's not just transport; it's a scenic journey that connects the entire coast. The vintage-style trams add to the charm, though modern low-floor cars are also in use. For visitors, it's the most convenient and enjoyable way to see multiple coastal destinations in one day.
