Ostend has a wide beach of fine sand in front of the centre and a seafront promenade, the Zeedijk, with 20th-century buildings, the Venetian Galleries and the Wellington racecourse at the end. You can walk or cycle the whole length without any hills.
With a dog
From 1 October to 31 March dogs can be on the beach without restriction. In April, May, June and September, only before 10:00 and after 18:30; in July and August, before 10:00 and after 20:00. There are stretches where they are always allowed, on a lead: the "Little Beach" between the pier and the west breakwater, and between Raversijde and Middelkerke.
