The northern Danish city of Skagen is known not only for its two seas, but also for its fish catch, which feeds almost the entire country. In addition, it is a resort. Not surprisingly, this is a sunny place, there are very few rainy and cloudy days. And there are enough places for swimming here. Of course, Skagen boasts delicious fish dishes. However, it was made famous by two seas that meet each other at Cape Grenen.
This place is notable for the fact that the Baltic and North Seas with different temperatures, salinity and density simply do not mix. Of course, this cannot but amaze. It's really hard to believe in the existence of such a thing. Additionally, you can climb the lighthouse and look at all the splendor of nature from above. But swimming here is strictly prohibited due to strong currents.
Not far from the cape there is a "Buried Church". It serves as a reference point for sailors. And it looks pretty sad. Back in the 18th century, it began to be covered with sand from the dune. Now, the entire first floor is covered with sand. In addition, local residents have been fighting desertification for more than a century. Plants are planted so that the dunes do not spread.
In addition to the cape, Skagen is known for its numerous art galleries. Meanwhile, there are also many interesting museums here. And it will be easiest to move around the city on a rented bicycle. Comfortable quiet streets, bright low houses, cozy cafes – there is a special atmosphere here. Of course, the city is suitable for home lovers. In addition, many Danes adhere to "hugge" - a sense of comfort, warmth and well-being in the home and life. It is worth taking a closer look at this lifestyle in Denmark.
For example, you can stay at the Ruths Hotel.
Bright and spacious apartments are located in low houses on the seashore. A sauna and a swimming pool on site contribute to complete relaxation. Of course, during good weather, you can have a picnic outside. In addition, you can stay here with your pets. They serve both signature Danish cuisine and dishes from other countries.
If you love tranquility and the philosophy of "hugge" is close to you, then be sure to visit Denmark. You will especially like Skagen because of its quiet and cozy atmosphere.
