Hours of fun in the water guaranteed at Vauban Park in July and August! No need to go to the coast to take a refreshing dip during hot summer days, you can do it in Veurne too! You can also rent kayaks and SUPs here during the summer months!
Swimming
You don't have to head to the coast to take a dip during lovely summer days. After all, you will be able to swim in your own city and that in the Vauban Park's large pond. Weather permitting, you will be able to splash in a beautiful setting from Tuesday to Sunday from 1.30pm to 5.30pm. A green or red flag will show whether you can swim or not. Follow the Facebook page of the Sports Service to see if Vauban-Bad is open! You can find the page at www.facebook.com/sportdienst.veurne(dit is een externe link). Swimming in Vauban-Bad is free of charge!
