Are you ready for a spooky yet cozy autumn break at the Kattegatcentre? In week 42, we open our doors for an autumn break filled with sea creature skeletons, focusing on the fascinating crabs that wear their skeletons on the outside and rule the depths of the sea when the predatory fish disappear!
We welcome the whole family to an extraordinary autumn break packed with sea creature skeletons and the sea’s toughest creatures: crabs! When the predatory fish vanish from the ocean, it’s the crabs that reign – and in week 42, you’ll have the chance to get up close to them!
Explore the captivating skeleton-bearing crabs in the autumn break’s new attractions, “Crab Lab” and “The Creative Crab Workshop”, and learn why crabs are the sea’s unbeatable rulers when the predatory fish in the ocean die.
Look forward to a thrilling autumn break with plenty of skeletons, crab chills, fun, and learning! Are you brave enough to meet the crabs?
