Stunning waterfront, fierce storms and a storied past run deep with this legendary body of water. The Romans, Vikings, and World War II all left a remarkable legacy along these shores, proving The North Sea is perfect for sea-lovers and culture-seekers alike. Follow the North Sea Cycle Route and the North Sea Trail to coastal towns, wildlife and seaside heritage sites. Stroll the wide beaches and dunes on your way to seaside towns. Cruise to the Frisian Islands that stretch for miles along the coast where Holland, Germany, and Denmark share in their natural preservation. Gaze over the preserved fortress town of Frederikstad and the fjord-side capital of Oslo. Stand where the waves of water and history collide.
