The climate of Sluis (the Netherlands)
Sluis is a small fortified city located in the western part of Dutch Flanders in the province of Zeeland/Zealand. Sluis is located in the Sluis municipality including the following villages: Oostburg, Aardenburg, IJzendijke, Schoondijke, Breskens Groede, Eede, Hoofdplaat, Cadzand, Zuidzande, Waterlandkerkje, Nieuwvliet, Retranchement and St Kruis. The capital of the municipality of Sluis is Oostburg. The only belfry in the Netherlands can be found in Sluis which is a museum nowadays. Sluis is a popular shopping city. Many Belgians come to this old fortified city to shop. The three star restaurant Oude Sluis is situated in Sluis. Sluis has a moderate maritime climate influenced by the North Sea and the warm Gulfstream. Because Sluis is situated in the vicinity of the North Sea the influence of the sea is stronger here than in the more easterly located places in the Netherlands. Longer periods with subzero temperatures are uncommon and extremes in temperatures during the summer hardly occur. On the hottest days of the year the ever blowing sea wind offers some cooling.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather, extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate information for each month of the year:
