A hostel on a boat, an outdoor café on the banks of the river Lys or on the water, a kayak tour,… anything’s possible. There’s water everywhere in Ghent, which makes for a large variety of fun recreational possibilities. You can go for a ride with a vessel of your choice, have a leisurely stroll along the water, sleep on a boat or enjoy a drink or a meal in a floating restaurant.
