Knokke-Heist
Knokke-Heist is the easternmost seaside town in West Flanders in Belgium. It is close to the Dutch border so very suitable for making a trip from e.g., Zeeland. You might also hear about “Knokke-het Zoute.” Het Zoute is a residential area with beautiful villa’s and one of the most expensive municipalities in Belgium. Mundane Knokke-Heist is not as historic as Bruges but great for the beach and for……. upscale interior shopping!

What to visit
Of course, the beach, the beautiful Zwin nature reserve, the butterfly garden, the golf course or walk the Instagram route. There is a lot to do in Knokke, but this blog is all about shopping. Shopping for your home because there are a lot of interior design shops within walking distance.
Attention: Many businesses are now only open for a few days because Winter is outside the tourist season. Of course, this does not apply to the chains, but if you really have a special business in mind, it is good to check the opening hours.
Interior shopping
Natiënlaan
The Natiënlaan is the access road to Knokke (many road works – November ’22). Here you can find the shops if you want to build, decorate, or redecorate your entire home. With experts on fireplaces like De Puydt, outside furniture Exterioo and RR Interior (one of the 3 and soon 4 shops of RR in Knokke). But for our walk we will concentrate on the center of Knokke-Heist.

I park in the parking garage under the town hall Alfred Verweeplein 1, which is at the beginning of the Lippenslaan. Another possibility is Interparking IJzerparkgarage in between the streets I visited. Dumortierlaan 90 A

Bonus Tips
- All interior shoppers can make free use of an electric shuttle service that connects the main shopping streets. April – mid October daily, mid October till April on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
- If you enjoy Knokke, you might also like interior shopping in Paris
- Don’t forget to eat moules or the unsurpassed “garnalenkroket” shrimp croquette (often with fried parsley)
- Have a look at the architecture, not only beautiful classic villa’s with white walls and red roofs. De Heldentoren by Neutelings Riedijk Architects, Le coin perdu by Tim van de Velde are the representatives of more adventurous architecture
