Paddling near Roosendaal, North Brabant

Roosendaal sits in the western part of North Brabant, close to the delta waters where the provinces of Zeeland and South Holland meet. The area's paddling centres on the Roosendaalsche Vliet running through the city itself, while the wider region opens onto large tidal and lake waters including the Volkerak, Hollandsch Diep, Oosterschelde, and Grevelingenmeer. Flatwater touring and SUP are the dominant disciplines here, with the Biesbosch National Park's creek network drawing canoeists and kayakers from across the region.
