Over the Oliegeultje
Welcome to t’Oliegeultje
’t Oliegeultje is located next to the harbour of Burghsluis, or rather in the harbour itself, and is part of the yacht club.
From the south-facing terrace, on a clear day you can see the sandbanks on the other side. Porpoises regularly swim past and seals can be seen resting on the Roggeplaat. Just ask the waitstaff for a binoculars, because then you can get a better look at the seals sunbathing over there. At ’t Oliegeultje there is always something to see.
A unique experience…
The terrace at ’t Oliegeultje is the ultimate place to relax and unwind. With glass walls, comfortable chairs and no less than 70 square metres of sunshades, you can wonderfully enjoy the fresh air here. Alongside the terrace, ’t Oliegeultje also offers a cosy restaurant where you can enjoy delicious dishes. The ambience has been carefully curated to make your visit extra special. From the moment you step inside with us, you are given a warm welcome by our attentive hostesses. In short, it is definitely worth making a detour to spend an hour (or longer) here.
Where does our name come from
from where?
Early 1980 the name ’t Oliegeultje came into being…
Thanks to a clever skipper who delivered oil and water to the Delta Works and had a brilliant idea. He discovered that he could use a vleitje – a natural channel where water remains during low tide – to sail from Burghsluis to the other side.
One day when he was called over the VHF radio for an oil order, he enthusiastically told them that at that moment he was sailing through the Vleitje, also known as ’t Oliegeultje (the Little Oil Channel). It turned out to be a brilliant move, because from that moment on his clever trick became known as ’t Oliegeultje and the name has stuck ever since!
