Henne beach - the perfect day at sea is from: Over night the wind turned on Southwest, raises a strong breeze in the grasses of the wide landscape of dunes, beach Henne back and forth.
Again and again the shadow scurry over the sand hills, thrown from the high white clouds, the wind from the North Sea since the Danish west coast drives. This Sunday afternoon but the sun is clearly the upper hand. Heftig the waves on the hard sand, where a young woman and her daughter struggling with a dragon - he will not rise to heaven, as it should. Some beach walking, barefoot and in shorts, looking sometimes amused, sometimes sympathetic to, until the dragon is finally up.
Not every summer in the western part of Jutland is as pleasant as this: sunny but not too warm, with white clouds on deep blue skies and plenty of time in order to be active and yet relaxing.
It can sometimes rain or oppressively hot, the weather is difficult to calculate. And with a strong east wind is ever before, millions of beetles Marie worn on the beaches, where they all cling to what they were before the labor pains of the sea also saves the dune grass, sand castles, beach and bikinis.
No destination for travel bargains
Seaside resorts hot Blåvand West Jutland, Vejers beach, beach and hen Hvide Sande and consist of thousands of holiday homes, situated between the dunes hide. And although the number of visitors from Germany no longer as high as in the early nineties, the expansive beaches in the summer firmly in German hands: in the car parks are only a few cars from Denmark and Norway, between those with D-marks.
There are many regulars who come back every year, and others who are on a visit to West Jutland respectively. Because Denmark is not known inexpensive travel destination. The cottages are very comfortable, but electricity is incidental to the powerful book. When you walk eight bread baker for almost six euros converted on the counter.
Also eggs, milk and meat are more expensive than in Germany, many families pack up their wagons with stores full. This helps to make the entrance fee for example for the theme park Legoland anzusparen of an hour's drive from the coast to inland Billund is: In the colorful world of millions of Lego bricks with their white-coasters and a family of four will pay around 130 euros at the entrance day.

Other trips are more favorable - to Ribe and Esbjerg, for example. Both cities are well suited for a visit to one of the not so perfect days when the beaches remain empty. Ribe is the oldest city of the Kingdom of Denmark and offers a beautiful pedestrian area, above all, a very old church architecture. The cathedral, with its nearly 50-meter high tower is on the 13th Century, the abbey church of St. Catharina is about 200 years younger.
For families with young children could, however, a day trip to Esbjerg is the better choice. Because there is the Fisheries and Maritime Museum established, which offers many interactive areas: The visitors can marine biologists at work in the lab watching, a small pool with fish serves as an underwater petting zoo. "
Seal-show in the pool
Between the old fishing boats show Seiler and forged under the open sky, as craftsmen who have worked earlier, a net-maker can look at the finger when he draws up hammocks. And twice a day, the gray seals and sea lions in an outdoor pool fed - the museum staff, make this a great show with explanations in three languages. Because the crowd is often large, families should be the places early in the first row secure.
Esbjerg has approximately 83,000 inhabitants, the fifth largest city of Denmark. Yet here too close - as in the rest of Denmark - the shops in the city on most days already at 17.30 clock, which many tourists do not calculate. As a port city of Esbjerg is also partly influenced by industrial buildings, also in the field of view, if visitors to the recent west coast of the landmarks are: the sculpture "People at Sea" by artist Svend Wiig Hansen with her four nine-meter-high white figures, as a symbol of the encounter between man and nature since 1995 over the North Sea look.
These tours away from the beaches offer a variety - the main reason for a trip to West Jutland in the summer, they are not. The host quickly remembers when morning before he enters his holiday house and a first idea of getting that on this day back at the North Sea could be a perfect with white clouds on blue sky, a strong breeze and a bellowing surf.
The churches of Ribe and the monumental figures in the port of Esbjerg is a reminder to the memory chip of the camera. But today is about the kite on the beach right into the wind to get very relaxed evening and sausages on the grill to lay Cottage.
