''Men at Sea'' or ''Man meets the sea'' ( Danish: ''Mennesket ved Havet'') is a 9-metre (30 feet) tall white monument of four seated males, located west of Esbjerg next to Sædding Beach on the southwest coast of Denmark. Located opposite the Fisheries and Maritime Museum, it is one of the area's major tourist attractions, and is a landmark of Esbjerg. The sculpture was designed by Svend Wiig Hansen and installed on 28 October 1995.
