Timeline
15:45
Grab a coffee and settle into the antique-filled interior of Valhalla Wine & Coffee. It is just a short walk from the museum and opens at 11:00, so it is ready for an early afternoon start.
16:15
Walk nine minutes to the promenade to find the Amber clock. This sundial-shaped art piece is made from thousands of donated amber pieces. Arrive here to watch the golden light hit the amber just before the sun sets.
16:30
Stand by the amber clock as the sun sets toward the southwest. The light fades quickly in January, so this is the precise moment to watch the sky change color over the sea.
16:50
End the evening with a meal at Restaurant Piano. It is a nine-minute walk from the promenade and stays open until 22:00, providing a warm place to finish your night.
Local tip
The sun sets toward the southwest in January. Position yourself at the Amber clock with the sea in front of you for the best view. Check the route from Valhalla Wine & Coffee to the promenade if you are unsure of the way.
