Tours in Skagen, Denmark: what is worth seeing and visiting for inquisitive tourists?

Cape Grenen, separating the Kattegat and Skagerrak straits, is the territory where Skagen city located. This is one of the most popular cities in Denmark among tourists.

The resort gained fame thanks to the unique sand dunes. Local residents readily show visitors the old church of the city, which is famous for being literally covered in sand at the end of the 18th century. Now only one tower remains from the "buried" church, which still rises above the dunes.

Those who like to travel by car usually book their car online in advance in Denmark. At Copenhagen Airport, renting a compact car will cost from 19 euros per day, and in Aalborg - from 21 euros per day. Prices may vary depending on the season, car class and rental period.


Once the amazing storyteller Andersen said that in this place inspiration will visit both the artist and the poet. Indeed, the unique natural phenomena make you wonder and admire. What is the meeting of two seas: the North and the Baltic.

Their waters rush towards each other, in a hurry, as evidenced by powerful currents, but they cannot merge together, because they have different water densities. This amazing sight - the collision of currents - awes not only travelers, but also local residents, they even called this place "The End of the World."

The above natural phenomenon has found its continuation in the Danish brand - exclusive wristwatches with a logo symbolically reflecting the meeting of two seas are produced here. Minimalism is the main secret of the style of these watches, the models of which are very diverse.



Founded in the XIII century, Skagen attracts travelers with its white sandy shores. The beauty of these places was also appreciated by the current authorities. Part of the territory of the city was given over to the dachas of the local elite, and soon business people from all over Denmark, and now Scandinavia, joined the aristocrats of Skagen.

Unique buildings with original design projects are the dachas of the business elite. So important and stiff in their offices, here they completely change and relax, with pleasure they talk about an invisible border that not only two seas, but also the underwater inhabitants of these elements cannot cross.

By the way, the worshipers of the Quran gave out a rather interesting fact: they quote two places that literally speak of the creation by the Lord of two seas that will never merge.

Travelers can not only see the miracle of the world with their own eyes, but also take part in mass festivities - celebrations of the Summer Solstice. This is a whole ceremony, with folk songs and dances around the fires, which are bred right on the beach.


Sand dunes, which are admired by vacationers, win more and more new territories from a person. Planting rose hips and sea buckthorn, pines and lawn grass does not save the city from the sands. They are slowly but surely moving towards Skagen.

It remains to be hoped that the wonderful resort town will still be saved, man will emerge victorious from the struggle against the sand dunes. After all, Skagen, in addition to being a place of rest, also supplies fish to all of Denmark. And, of course, it will be a shame if the elements bring the architectural ensembles of the Old City, as happened with the church.

In the meantime, there is such an opportunity, photographers, ordinary tourists, and real artists are in a hurry to capture the beauty of a unique place. They exhibit their works in the local museum, which is very popular.
