Ostend lies to the east of the city and has an industrial feel to it. Think meatpacking district in New York or East London….that’s got you thinking. It’s another very up-and-coming area with plenty going for it; it does, however, still have a way to go, but soon it will be another major hotspot.

Along the river towards Osthafen, you can find artist studios, furniture shops, Oostend Cafe and Bar and a fantastic area around the ECB. Along the east part of the river, you will discover loads of festivals during the summer, and it is home to parties like LAZY and Die Kleinste Disko Der Welt. It’s the perfect place to bring visitors or take a stroll with the family.

Hafenpark is another excellent spot for the whole family. It’s great for running, a weekend BBQ or taking a stroll through the lovely gardens there.
