Autumn by the North Sea with kids

Autumn holidays by the North Sea are a fantastic experience for the whole family, where both children and adults can enjoy the beautiful, natural surroundings and exciting activities. A holiday by the North Sea means you can combine fresh air, cultural experiences and fun indoor play.

Lalandia in Søndervig is an ideal starting point for your autumn holiday. The large holiday centre offers a wide range of activities to keep the whole family entertained, whatever the weather. Children can frolic in the impressive waterpark with slides and wave pools, while adults can relax in the wellness area. When you need a break from the water, Lalandia also has a playland that children can spend hours exploring.

Travelling further south, Bork Legeland is another great destination for families with children. Here, children can let their imaginations run wild in the indoor playland, which offers both physical activity and creative challenges. With slides, trampolines and climbing walls, there's something for children of all ages, and parents can enjoy a coffee in the café area while the little ones play.

After a day of fun and games, you might want to take a trip to Tirpitz, a museum that offers a fascinating journey through the history of the West Coast. The museum is housed in an impressive, modern building hidden in the dunes. Here you can explore exhibitions on everything from the harsh nature of the North Sea to the dramatic events of the Second World War. The museum also has an interactive children's section where youngsters can learn about the history of the coast in a fun and engaging way.

An autumn holiday by the North Sea is therefore not only an opportunity to experience Denmark's beautiful nature, but also a chance to make memories with your family. A holiday you will all remember.

For families planning an autumn holiday on the West Coast, it's important to stay informed about the many exciting activities and experiences on offer in the area. One of the best ways to do this is by using the West Coast APP or the event calendar on this page.

The West Coast APP is a convenient and user-friendly platform that gives you access to a wealth of information about local events, nature experiences and family-friendly activities. By downloading the app, you can easily get an overview of what's happening near you during the autumn holidays. The app also offers a number of filters so you can quickly find the activities that best suit your children's interests. For example, you can search for creative workshops, outdoor playgrounds, nature walks and much more.

The event calendar is another valuable resource. This calendar is constantly updated with current events and happenings throughout the area. The calendar makes it easy to plan your holiday by giving you an overview of what activities are taking place on specific days. This is especially useful during the autumn holidays when many local attractions offer special child-friendly events such as Halloween parties, nature workshops and treasure hunts.

By using both the West Coast APP and the event calendar, you can make sure you don't miss anything and make the most of your autumn holiday on the West Coast. With these tools, you can easily plan your days so that there is time for relaxation and fun, educational experiences for the whole family.

One of the biggest events of the autumn holiday is Lokes Aften at Bork Vikingehavn, which takes place on 17 October 2024.

Fortunately, when the autumn rain falls heavily on the North Sea, there are plenty of indoor activities for families with children to enjoy. While the roaring sea and windswept dunes may seem like an obvious setting for outdoor adventures, there are a number of attractions and experiences that make it fun to head indoors when the weather turns wet.

One of the most popular places for families with children is the playground. Here children can burn off a lot of energy in a safe and fun environment, while adults can take a break in the café area. From climbing frames and trampolines to ball pools and bouncy castles, the playground is the perfect place to escape on a rainy day.

If the family is looking for water fun and a water park atmosphere, you can visit one of the many water parks or swimming pools. For example, Hvidbjerg Strand Badeland - an indoor waterpark with both water slides and child-friendly pools where the little ones can frolic, while older children and adults can enjoy the hot tub and sauna. It's a great way to combine fun and relaxation while the autumn rain pounds against the windows outside.

For the creatively inclined, there are several places along the coast where you can unfold your artistic talents. At Villa Krea in Henne Strand, the whole family can spend time together making pegboards or trying their hand at other fun craft activities. It's a great way to create memories together and take home some homemade souvenirs. At Dit Kunstverk you can paint on ceramics together. Not only is it fun, it's also an activity that brings the family together and allows creativity to flourish.

Museums are also a great way to pass the time when the weather doesn't favour outdoor adventures. Tirpitz in Blåvand is a modern museum that combines local history with interactive exhibitions that make it fun for both children and adults to explore the past and present of the North Sea. With its underground exhibitions, Tirpitz provides a unique experience that is both educational and fascinating.

Whatever the weather, the North Sea coastline offers a wealth of opportunities for families with children who want to experience something together - even when the rain whips down.
