Plopsaland


This cute popular theme park is based around Belgian TV character Plop the gnome and his friends. It's a kid-pleasing world of rides, roller coasters and fun. Access by public transport is excellent: catch the Kusttram to Plopsaland station from anywhere on the coastal line, or take the train to De Panne station for direct pedestrian access to the park.
