Today I was able to put a small but nice tour online on our Aida trip. We walked from the parking lot to the point where the North Sea and Baltic Sea meet. The beach is beautiful and the "tip" is simply worth seeing.

Since we're up here in the far north, a Grenen tour is a must.
Grenen is the tip of North Jutland, where the two seas, the Skagerrak and Kattegat, meet and where you can stand with one foot in each sea. It is a fascinating experience to stand at the very tip of Jutland and the European mainland and watch …

Break after the first half of the Bunken/Skagen bike tour - you could also say we took a breather before we have to pedal against the strong wind 😁.

Grenen is the northernmost point of Denmark and is where two seas, Skagerrak and Kattegat, meet. It is therefore the only place where you can stand with one foot in the Baltic Sea and the other foot in the North Sea.

Small tour "at the end of the world" - where the two seas Skagerrak and Kattegat meet and where you can stand with one foot in each sea.

It is truly a fascinating experience to stand at the very tip of Jutland and mainland Europe and watch the waves of the two seas merge and break over Skagen's reef.

A short walk along the beach and through the dunes on the Kattegat. This is where the North Sea and the Baltic Sea meet, the waves dance samba against each other. A powerful and wonderful place!

A very nice round. Great experience at the place where the North Sea and the Baltic Sea meet. The waves crash against each other.
On the way back through the dunes the mosquitoes ate us alive.
