MEETINGS AND CONFERENCES BY THE WADDEN SEA
WELCOME Are you thinking about hosting your event in the charming medieval town of Ribe ? Or perhaps you are planning a mindful experience in the wild nature on the small island of Mandø ? Or do you consider organising your next conference in Esbjerg, Denmark’s energy metropole ? Regardless of your choice, the coast of the Wadden Sea offers plenty of spectacular experiences. Here the sky and the sea become one, and the tide is in charge. There is nothing quite like it, the breathtaking nature of the Wadden Sea National Park, included on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Here you can go on a seal safari, pluck fresh oysters from the seabed and drink champagne, or experience the phenomenon ”Black Sun” when a million starlings dance the ballet in the sky. Unique experiences that your meeting or conference will be remembered for. On top of these nature experiences, there are plenty of options for adding music or cultural events, culinary experiences, golf, wellness, or other recreational activities. We have a close and longstanding collaboration with many talented meeting and conference suppliers in the area and will happily help you find the right partners or your event. The combination of professional meeting facilities and unique experiences by the Wadden Sea we call ”Meet & More”. We look forward to welcoming you!

If you are working on next year’s strategy, or you are in the midst of a creative process or a business decision and need a break during your meeting or conference, experiencing ”Black Sun” will give you a mindful and inspiring pause. “Starling Magic” or “Black Sun”, the murmuration of starlings, is a beautiful and spectacular natural phenomenon. The movements of the starlings in the air create interesting patterns in the sky over the marshland, before the birds fly to the ground to stay overnight. It is pure therapy for the mind to watch.

MIGRATORY BIRDS E X P E R I E N C E T H E M I G R AT O R Y B I R D S I N T H E W A D D E N S E A
When birdwatching in the Wadden Sea, you have the opportunity to experience some of the birds that migrate along the East Atlantic Flyway.Just the idea, that several of the birds cross between 25-33 countries, can make one humble to the greatness of nature. Bird watching often starts 2.5 hours before high tide and the birds are pressed against the coasts. The Wadden Sea is in many ways Denmark’s savannah, each species of bird is designed differently and the birds of prey, peregrine falcon and sea eagles set the agenda.

FANØ W I N D , S A N D A N D G R E AT E X P A N S E S
Does the meeting need a stage shift? or a change of pace? On the island Fanø, only your imagination that sets the limits for what is possible. Here the 15 km long and up to 1.5 km wide beaches gives you enormous amounts of space to romp on. Here you can go on seal safari, amber safari, or drive blocart, together or against each other. Nordby and Sønderho town centers are characterized by the maritime history, where Fanø in the 19th century was one of the four largest shipping cities in Denmark. The sailing ships are gone, but the houses, the museums, the clothes, the music and the dance keep the maritime traditions alive. Fanø is 12 minutes sailing from Esbjerg in the middle of the Wadden Sea, where the feeling is like moving to another world.

CONTACT

Hotel Dagmar Torvet 1 DK-6760 Ribe Tel. +45 75 42 00 33
Plushing on the chairs, thick curtains and soft carpets means that only the melodies from the cathedral bell chimes break the peace as soft background music.
