Het Grevelingenmeer is located in Zeeland. Zeeland is a province of the Netherlands in the southeastern corner near to Belgium. This lake used to be connected with the North Sea. Nowadays the lake is separated by a dam and regulated by a sluice to let in salt water and keep the flora and fauna healthy.
