I would stay in Bruges and take the train to Blankenberge.
There is much more to see and do in Bruges than in Blankenberge.
Unless you want to sit at a potentially crowded beach, there is not a whole lot to do in Blankenberge.

Definitely go for Brugge. Blankenberge is the Belgian Benidorm. Not very highly regarded. There are plenty of other coastal towns that I think would offer a more enjoyable stay. Blankenberge does ofcourse have a direct train link to the rest of the country, making it easy to reach.
