There are many unique things about the environment in Skagen and three things in particular stand out as natural phenomena of the region – the special light, the meeting of the seas, and the migrating desert. If you want to find out more about these natural phenomena, the Skagen Odde Nature Center is just north of town on Batterivej. As you leave Skagen going north toward Grenen, take a left at the first lighthouse, which is Batterivej. The Nature Center was designed by Jørn Utzon, the famous Danish architect who also designed the opera house in Sydney. The permanent section of the exhibition focuses on the four components – sand, water, wind and light – that contribute to the fascinating environment of the area. The exhibition will answer a lot of questions you might have, but you should try to experience all the natural wonders before you visit the Nature Center, so you know exactly which questions you want answered.
