Canisvlietsche kreek

The Canisvlietse Kreek is a former tidal creek with flat banks with moist grasslands and reed beds. The creek is a weakly brackish creek remnant of 13.7 ha of open water, located along the Canal from Ghent to Terneuzen and the Belgian border. Before 1962, the creek was part of a larger creek system that also included the current Molenkreek near Westdorpe. The grounds of the polders were low-lying and therefore wet; The natural value was great. When the canal was widened in 1962, the creeks were given their current form, i.e. the surrounding land was filled in with dredged material and part of the former creek was filled in, isolating the Canisvliet creek from the Molenkreek. Only in the immediate vicinity of the Canisvliet creek some natural values remained.
