Feel the soft, warm sand between your toes on one of Northern Europe’s best beaches for swimmers – Løkken Strand. The beach is 10 kilometres long, with fine white sand, and has both areas where cars are allowed and car-free zones. In the summer, there are five hundred private, white beach huts on the beach, reflecting both the sunlight and moonlight and giving it its name of “the White Town”. Between Ndr. and Sdr. Strandvej there’s a sand competition for children, which is a proud tradition at Løkken Strand. This stretch of the beach is of course car-free.
Driving on Løkken Strand – the adventure continues
If you want to drive along the seaside to Nr. Lyngby towards the north, you should go from the town centre via Ndr. Strandvej. Along this stretch, you can see remains from the Second World War. Many bunkers have become visible as the sea has slowly eroded the sand dunes. Today the bunkers can provide shelter on days when the western wind blows sand around. It’s also possible to climb on and inside the old bunkers. However, you should take care as there may be sharp edges and rusty iron sticking out. If you prefer to go south along the beach to Blokhus, then drive down Ny Strandvej.

Rubjerg Knude Lighthouse
Discover the unique location of this lighthouse, which is set among shifting sands dunes, directly by the sea.
The light in Rubjerg Knude Lighthouse was lit for the first time the 27. December 1900. The lighthouse was built on the coastal slope’s highest point 60 metres above sea level and a good 200 metres inland. The price for the construction totalled 176,000 kr.
Sand problems
The lighthouse tower is 23 metres high, and, when the lighthouse was built, it was 200 metres inland; and there were no large dunes around it. With time the sea moved in closer, and, simultaneously, the wind blew large amounts of sand up from the cliff. The sand piled up in front of and around the lighthouse. It filled the well and ruined the kitchen gardens.
