Klitmøller is a locality on Thy in North Jutland.
background
Klitmøller is a former fishing village on the west coast of Thy, in which fishing is still carried out on a small scale with traditional boats, but which now lives mainly from tourism. Among surfers, Klitmøller - together with Nørre Vorupør - the reputation as Cold Hawaii to be one of the best surf spots in Europe that even attracts surfers from the USA. The prerequisite for this is the mostly strong north-westerly wind at this north-westerly tip of Denmark, which makes for spectacular waves. However, if the east wind blows, the surfers only have stand up paddling.

The core area of the place around the port or fishing beach can be quickly explored on foot. In order to open up the wide range of holiday home regions or to reach the beaches further on, a bike or car makes sense.
However, parking spaces are in short supply in the town center 1 The small parking lot on the surfing beach in the center of the village is overcrowded in no time Other small parking spaces on the beach / harbor: 2 and 3 .

Tourist Attractions
1 One of the main attractions in Klitmøller, even for non-surfers, is mostly the surfers on the beach. The small beach promenade, which was laid out at the beginning of the 2010s, has changed the character of the beach, which used to be dominated by fishing, and instead of walking across sand you can now walk on concrete slabs above the entire beach in the local area, which of course has also contributed to accessibility. Benches and picnic facilities have been set up above the surfers' beach. At the western end of the beach, where it bends to the south, a large wooden platform was also built with ramps, play areas and plenty of seating.

Swimming
There are two beach areas that are mainly reserved for swimming and beach life.
3 On the west beach at Nystrup Camping it is rather quiet, here are so extensive dunes and beach sections that it can hardly be overcrowded. As on so many beaches in Jutland, you spend your day at the beach in the middle of bunkers, which are also used by many visitors as a welcome source of shade. The beach is a bit pebbly in sections. From the beach and the dunes you have the finest spectator seats for the sunset, which can be observed here in the best possible way, to which whole crowds also come.
4 There is also a long bathing beach in the east of the village, adjacent to the surfers' beach. There are also a large number of parking spaces in the immediate vicinity of the beach.
