Should you on the cruise to the Harbour at Hanstholm?

The west jutland fiskeriby coming from July next year on the list of Danish krydstogtdestinationer, when one of the two big cruise ships will sail through the new entrance to the port.

It writes the Port of Hanstholm in a press release.

The first krydstogtbooking in the Port of Hanstholm is with the ship ‘MS Berlin’, entering port 14. July 2020 with a capacity of 412 guests. The year after, the 23.-24. July 2021, one arrives at the somewhat larger ship ‘MS The World’, which is one of the world’s most exclusive cruise ships with apartments for 150-200 passengers.

At the parties behind the contract is to be hoped that guests will be happy to get the chance to experience it close.

the cruise industry has experienced a rapid growth over the last several years and has generated a large demand in new destinations, including, in particular, smaller destinations, where guests have the opportunity to experience the more local and authentic, says Louise Landler, who is business developer of the SDK, Cruise, in a press release.

the SDK Cruise has, together with the Port of Hanstholm entered into the agreement.

– the Port of Hanstholm is one of the few ports on the Danish west coast, which can offer kajfaciliteter to the cruise ship. With Thy as a hinterland gives the guests the opportunity to experience the local fiskermiljø in Hanstholm and the raw and wild surrounding scenery with many attractions. It is quite unique and different compared to what you, as a krydstogtgæst else can experience in Denmark, Louise says Landler.

– We think, therefore, that is Sustainable in the long term can be quite an interesting cruise destination, says she.

At the Municipality of Thisted, Hanstholm, evokes the pride that agreement has fallen into place.

– I am proud to represent a municipality, where a future port with an ideal location by the North sea, creates entirely new opportunities to attract international tourists, says mayor of Thisted Municipality, Ulla Vestergaard, in a press release.

– the Port can not, however, attract the cruise ships alone. The principal factor for success is a very exciting destination, offering a unique interaction between nature, culture and dining experiences – and therefore arises the possibility of krydstogtturister in the very positive synergy between Thy oplevelseskvaliteter and port infrastructure, she says.

the Area around the Thy have in recent years been the subject of atypical attention. Denmark’s first national park and several popular surf spots, has dubbed the back of Thy ‘Cold Hawaii’ has given both national and international attention. The local turismeoperatør VisitThy therefore have a good guess at what the krydstogtturisterne can expect-

– For visitors from abroad accommodates the Thy something, it is difficult to find elsewhere. The port’s neighbor is one of Europe’s most significant klitheder with a magnificent view from numerous vantage points, and in the small coastal towns of bloom charmed the atmosphere with fishing, arts and outdoor activities, where the ‘Cold Hawaii’ describes something unusual. At the same time offers the Thy on an exciting history, in which the Bunkermuseum Hanstholms impressive installations from the 2. World war ii stands as a monument to a part of the atlantic wall, says Ole Riis.
