You really need to see this 'spooky town'. Since years there are plans to expand the harbour and over 1400 people needed to leave their village 'Doel'. A few die hards stay and live in the place full of grafitti and a very special atmosphere. There still is a bar and you can eat really very good at the mill. A must go! ON Sunday you will hear some stories in the local café... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPERJf0Q3vo
