Tall Ships Race Antwerp 2016
The ‘Tall Ships Race’ celebrates its diamond anniversary in 2016 returning to the vibrant port city of Antwerp The Tall Ships race is an internationally acclaimed annual competition which includes around 80 of the world’s most spectacular vessels. Antwerp famous, of course, for diamonds but also it is great for shopping. Take a stroll around and enjoy the wonderful atmosphere. Enjoy seeing the great sights such as the spectacular Cathedral of Our Lady. We also visit and stay in the popular seaside resort of Ostend, with its beach, quality shopping, great seafood and bustling bars. Ostend is Belgium’s biggest seaside resort, once the preferred seaside destination for the Edwardians and still popular with the British who flock to it for the sun, sand and seaside air. Ostend is renowned for its five glorious seaside beaches, for those looking to relax, and there is also plenty to do for the more adventurous, especially by night as Ostend comes alive with bars, pubs and clubs in the evening so there is always plenty to see and do. Ostend is a vibrant city rich in history, offering plenty to see and do whatever the weather. There are a number of fascinating museums and galleries, in particular the house of James Ensor, the Anglo- Belgian artist has been transformed into a museum of his life and is worth visiting. Baron Ensor was an important influence on expressionism and surrealism and he lived in Ostend for almost his entire life.
