Spui (river)

The Spui is a small tidal river in South Holland in the Netherlands, separating the islands of Voorne-Putten and Hoekse Waard. Historically, it forked off the Oude Maas river at the town of Oud-Beijerland to end in the Haringvliet estuary, but as a (planned) result from the Delta Works, its flow has been reversed. There are no bridges or tunnels crossing the Spui, but there is a car ferry from Hekelingen to Nieuw-Beijerland, and a pedestrian and bicycle ferry between Oud-Beijerland and Rhoon.

Located at 51.8122, 4.3175 (Lat. / Lng.), about 1 miles away.
