An evening out in Bevelanden gets an extra sparkle at Theater de Mythe. Right in the heart of the city, you step into a world where stories come to life, music fills the air, and comedians have the audience roaring with laughter. Whether you're coming for an intimate theatre performance, a classical concert, or an energetic show where you can sing along, the evening here is all about experiencing it together.
Take a stroll around the oyster pits and take your time to look. The light plays on the water, and visitors tuck into restaurants for a plate of fresh seafood. You'll hear the hum of voices, the screech of seagulls, and the rhythmic sound of water lapping against stone. The salty air tingles your nose, and everything here breathes one thing: oysters. This is Beveland at its finest.
The months of September to April are the best time to visit the oyster pits. This is when the oysters have their fullest flavour. Taste the salty, fresh, and creamy taste that a Zeeland oyster should have. In September, the start of the oyster season is celebrated extensively, where you can not only taste this delicacy, but also experience the liveliness of the village itself.
The oyster pits are located in the middle of the village, near the harbour and the church. The basins are connected to the Oosterschelde and move with the ebb and flow of the tide. At high tide, fresh seawater flows in. At low tide, the pits partially empty and you can see the oysters lying there. Then there is washing, sorting and checking. You can hear the clattering of crates, the splashing of water and the calm discussions between people who have known this trade for generations.
A visit to the oyster pits is more than just looking. It's the sound of water against stone, the rhythm of ebb and flow, and of course, the unique taste of the oysters themselves. The oyster pits show how deeply the sea is interwoven with the village. Those who walk around here don't just taste oysters, but also the character of Beveland.
