Neeltje Jans

Welcome to my page about Neeltje Jans. This remarkable island in Zeeland lies in the heart of the Oosterschelde and is closely connected to the impressive Delta Works. Here, engineering, nature, and water come together in a unique way.

Neeltje Jans offers contrasts. On one side, you’ll find the powerful sea, massive storm surge barriers, and rugged sea dikes. On the other, quiet beaches, vast sandbanks, and spots where seals sunbathe undisturbed.

As a photographer, I’m fascinated by the dynamic light and water. At sunrise, the storm surge barriers glow with soft golden tones, while on stormy days the landscape reveals its raw, untamed side.

On this page, you’ll find my blogs and photographs capturing Neeltje Jans at its most inspiring. They tell stories of grand panoramas, striking weather conditions, and rare moments of tranquillity. Discover this special location where the power of nature meets human ingenuity.
