Goes, a charming town in the heart of Zeeland, is back on the map for cannabis enthusiasts — including international visitors. After a period of restricted access, coffeeshops in Goes are now welcoming Belgians, French, and German tourists again. That’s right: foreigners are once more allowed to enter and enjoy the relaxed Dutch cannabis scene here.
Whether you’re passing through Zeeland or planning a dedicated visit, Goes is worth the detour.
Foreign visitors were temporarily restricted, but as of now, Belgian, French, and German citizens are once again allowed into coffeeshops in Goes.
This makes Goes one of the more accessible spots for cross-border cannabis tourism.
Don’t forget to bring a valid ID — and cash is often preferred.
At the moment, Goes has two active coffeeshops — both easily reachable from the city center and surrounding areas. Whether you're into classic strains or just want a smooth experience without hassle, you'll find what you're looking for here.
The coffeeshops offer a take-away service only, but their staff are known for being friendly and informative.

Coffee shops near the borders with Belgium and Germany often have restrictions on allowing tourists. To enter and purchase cannabis, you must either be a Dutch citizen or be employed in the Netherlands.
If you're temporarily working or studying in the country, you can obtain proof from the city council and request a GBA Extract (GBA-Uitreksel). This documentation will help demonstrate your eligibility to access these establishments.
