A wonderful museum. A rare opportunity (at least, I don't know of any other) to see a live sunfish. However, the one that disappeared in February is just being replaced.

The North Sea Oceanarium in Hirtshals is one of Denmark's biggest attractions. This popular attraction opened in 1984. It was then called the North Sea Museum until 1998, when it was expanded to include an oceanarium containing 4.5 million liters of water. It's a breathtaking experience to stand in front of the huge aquarium and watch Klumpe the sea hare, the oceanarium's mascot. At the same time, the museum excels at taking children and adults beneath the surface, offering them unforgettable and educational experiences. www.opdagdanmark.dk/de/oplevelser/nordsoeen-oceanarium

Hirtshals is a busy port town on Denmark's north coast and the hub of all routes between Denmark and Norway served by Fjord Line. Hirtshals is perfect for exploring by bike. During the summer months, you should definitely take the path between the two beaches of Kjul and Tornby. Here you can expect miles of sand dunes, crashing waves and a real holiday atmosphere. Hirtshals consists of a charming little town center with bars and restaurants in an idyllic coastal setting. Of course, the town also offers a wide selection of fresh fish and seafood and the local restaurants are really worth a visit. https://www.fjordline.com/de/p/hafen-und-terminals/hirtshals
