Wadden Sea Centre is worth a visit, located 4.3 mi (6.9 km) from central Ribe. If you want to experience more of the culture Ribe has to offer, head to Ribe Vikingecenter, Ribehus Slotsbanke, and Ribe Cathedral.
You can spend time browsing the exhibits at Fano Kunstmuseum during your travels in Sønderho. While you're in the area, stroll along the seaside.
