Introduction

Grenen is the tip of the Jutland peninsula where two currents — the North Sea and the Baltic — meet yet refuse to mix, drawing a visible dividing line, Denmark's most geographically curious spot. The sandspit runs north into the sea; at low tide the broad shallows invite a walk to the very end. It is also a key stopover for migratory birds and a seal haul-out. Reached by a sandy tractor-train from Skagen, it is the Nordic 'land's end' for photos and quiet thought.
