The idea of the Sandworm, which would transport people to the tip of Grenen, originated in the late 1940s. At that time, gravel was being collected from Grenen for the many construction projects that had started after the war.
History tells us that during the trips to Grenen, many visitors asked for a ride in the vehicles that were used to collect the gravel. A bright mind thought, "Why not turn this into a business and make a little money."
The first vehicles were very primitive. The benches in the wagons were borrowed from the mission house.

As can also be seen in the image below, the conditions for the drivers also improved."
