Skagen Denmark...what to see and do?

Anyone been to Skagen? Looking for ideas for siteseeing and what to do at this cruise port.

Skagen is mainly about one tthing and that is Cape Skagen itself. This is the northern most point of Denmark and this is where Skagerrack and Kattegatt meet.

Skagen was an artists colony and there is a lovely small museum with some of their best paintings. It is in the middle of the town and the whole town is easy to walk around and very pleasant to visit.

Well worth going up to the point at Skagen. The town itself has charm, interest and superb sea food, plus artists, a small museum. To get to the point of the skaggerat/ kattergat, you can walk up the dunes/beach or use a buggy bus adapted for the sands. This area will give you a view of the real Denmark, away from the areas most visit. Wrap up as well as even in summer this can be a bit windswept.

Skagen is very popular during summer - good fish restaurants and beaches. Many Danes and Germand are having their summer holiday at Skagen.

Skagen is quite small however the must see locations are 4 to 13 km from the centre - renting a bike will be a nice experience, but you can also possible to rent a car.

The town of Skagen has a history spanning at least 600 years. Fishing has always been an important industry, and the town continues to be Denmark’s largest fishing port. Skagen has 9,000 inhabitants.

At the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, Skagen was home to a group of artists known as the Skagen Painters. At Skagen the light is very special.

In the Center you will find Skagens Museum, with 1,800 paintings, drawings, sculptures and handicrafts by the artists active in Skagen.

The museum is located in the former home of P.S. Krøyer, who was one of the most prominent members of the Skagen Painters. You can also visit painters Anna & Michael Anchers' charming house and Holger Drachmanns Home (author & painter).

Skagen is locatied on the peninsula only few kilometers wide where the two seas Kattegatt and the Skagerrak meet at Grenen (the branch).

A visit to Grenen is a must. It is possible to walk from the 4 km from Skagen to Grenen. The tip of Grenen grows by approximately 8 meters each year.

The Sanded Church 5km south of Skagen was once the largest church in the region. Only the tower now remains, after the sand drift that started in the 16th century literally covered the rest of the church. The church has not been in use since 1795.

13 km south of Skagen is Råbjerg Mile (Dune), the largest migrating sand dune in Northern Europe. It’s easy to imagine being in the middle of a desert. uring a unique flora and fauna.

Other places to visit by car are Voergaard Castle (70km), one of Denmark’s most beautiful renaissance castles, and Bangsbo Manor Mill House (45 km)

Specific questions are welcome - also by email.

Thanks all for the input.....thinking it is a do it ouselv s day and may rent a bike. Thx

What I would do myself - you can fine bike rentals at the web - might be wise to book in advance.

Sounds like you could just stroll around town quite easily.
