Holiday by the North Sea
For generations the North Sea has attracted a vast number of tourists due to its beautiful white beaches.
Varde Municipality is one of the most popular holiday destinations in Denmark. This position is a result of many undisturbed miles of white beaches, the high level of clean bathing water and the towns Blåvand, Henne and Vejers which all offer a number of modern experiences for tourists. From five star hotels and gourmet food to “keep it simple” and family fun by the seaside.
