About the Sint Anna – Zwijndrecht crossing
Twenty-one minutes down the left bank from Sint Anna to Zwijndrecht, thirty-eight sailings a day. The first leaves at 04:37 — the earliest scheduled departure in the network.
This is a Zone 3 leg at €4 single, €6 return. Sint Anna is the left-bank end of the pedestrian tunnel under the Scheldt and the start of the beach and polder paths; Zwijndrecht is a working suburb rather than a destination.
The route matters as part of the longer north line, which runs from the city centre out to Lillo in the docks. Bicycles and scooters travel free on every De Waterbus sailing, which for many passengers is the whole reason to use it.
