This forest is located on a row of dunes just behind the Walcheren coastline. Before the Boudewijnskerke forest was created, archaeologists conducted research. They found 12 valuable sites there, with building materials and shards of pottery. These range from the 8th to the 18th century. The find sites were not excavated further.
This area gives an impression on living in the dynamic delta of Zeeland in a rather sheltered place in dunes; it is situated near a creek with sweet water.
