Hjerting

Hjerting is a district of Esbjerg in southwest Jutland, Denmark, some 7 km (4.3 mi) north of the centre.

With a history as a fishing village going back some 700 years it is now an exclusive suburb with views over the sandy beach and the Wadden Sea.

[2] Today Hjerting is a pleasant seaside resort and an exclusive suburb overlooking the bay of Ho Bugt on the Wadden Sea.

In addition to the views out over the bay, the main attraction is the sandy beach which has a reddish colour.

[1] Large private villas line the coast road, rather like those in the north of Zealand.
