Aerial Photos of Denmark’s Beaches – the West Coast in Summer


Nordseestrand mit Buhnen und Brandung an der dänischen Westküste von oben

Last summer our big two-month trip towards northern Europe began. The borders to Denmark opened after Corona just in time, and so we went to the west coast for the first time. Two weeks of great landscapes, good food and friendly people – but at 10 to 15 degrees in July we got the winter jackets out sooner than expected.

Beaches and camper

We walked for kilometres along empty North Sea beaches. We often drove our camper straight onto the sand, a wonderful feeling of freedom. The drone came along, but on the stormy days it often stayed on the ground.

The Mavic’s last flight

Right on time for our farewell to Denmark the Mavic gave up – a mainboard fault that was only covered by the warranty back in Germany. The last aerial shot here on the blog was its farewell picture: battling against the wind, black screen, empty battery – landed just in time.
