Grenen Skagen

Grenen Skagen

The most northern point of Denmark where two oceans meet, Skagerack and Kattegatt. Not a castle but, built up by sand moving up along the west coast of the Jutland island. The sandy point is in constant change and moving towards northeast, growing 10m each year towards the Swedish west coast. The strong currents makes it so dangerous to swim so it’s forbidden. It is allowed to put one foot in each ocean. 7°C in the water, nope I did not!

With over 1 million visitors each year I guess it is one of Denmark’s most photographed places. Even on a cold day in March there was a even flow of people walking along the sandy beach to the edge. It’s heavy to walk in the loose sand and I understand why when I emptied 1 kilo of sand from my shoes when getting back to the car.

Don’t be foolish and build your house on loose sand, ha de Gött!

Tiny like a grain of sand.

Alone we disappear in the vastness.

Together we can form mountains.

Special thanks to the barefoot girl that stood on top of the dune stretching her arms out to make this photo special. From Råbjerg Mile sand dunes in Skagen, Denmark. Ha de Gött!
