More about Løkken
Løkken is one of the biggest holiday destinations on the Danish Northwest Coast. Besides the white sandbeaches and iconic beach huts, this destination has a lot to offer - and you can read more about it below.
The city with the small, white-painted beach huts
The wide, white sandy beach is a great playground for children of all ages and the characteristic white beach huts are the unmistakable landmarks of the city. The charming coastal town, which is hiding behind a lyme grass dune, is continuosly a favorite holiday and excursion place for many people. Løkken is old and young at the same time and a host for surfer, families with children and retired persons.
Løkken used to be center of a project between Denmark, Norway and Sweden, which were supposed to improve the resource utilization and tourism in the three-coast areas.
The first residents were three men, who named the city "Furreby Løkken" - hence the name Løkken - and made money by selling beer and other transactions. Ever since then, Løkken has been known for its bars and delicious restaurants.
And the city is even now a colorful and bustling city of trades.

Fresh fish from the beach
The highlight of the day in Løkken is when the fishing cutters are coming back from the North Sea and get pulled on the beach. Løkken is - together with Nr. Vorupør, Lild and Thorup Strande - one of the few places in Denmark where the fish is still landing on the beach. The fishers are even selling their fish directly from the boat and you can receive a SMS to know when the boats come ashore. Fish cannot be bought any fresher.
Surfer and other people on the beach are being served from small food trucks which offer fish and sea food specialities. The fish cakes are prepared in a local youth centre and the cod is caught by the neighbors on the beach, namely the fishers from local fishing cutters.
If you want the fish more prepared, and maybe indoors with some great beverages, then you can also enjoy the freshly caught fish in the citys restaurants!
Meet Løkken's local producers
Every Wednesday in high season is a market day where the merchants and small food makers from nearby are coming to town. And in September you can experience a festival at the pier with food trucks and fashion shows.
