Welcoming holiday homes in Denmark

Just 15 km south of Aarhus you will find Ajstrup Strand, a natural holiday area near water and natural sur­ro­un­dings. The fine sandy beach in the area is a haven for ho­li­day­ma­kers and locals every summer. Here you will find fine sand, clear water and safe swimming. For these reasons, the beach has been awarded Blue Flag-cer­ti­fi­ca­tion, which proudly sways in the wind. Close to the area is Norsminde Havn, an extremely charming marina where you can stroll along the pier, enjoy the sight of small fishing boats and visit one of the many cosy eateries. You can get from Ajstrup Strand to Odder in under 20 minutes by car.

Marstal is the largest town on Ærø with a proud maritime history which is why the town is also known as “Skipper Town” col­loqui­al­ly. This sense of pride par­ti­cu­lar­ly manifests itself in the local town life. The harbour is a well-known gathering place for townspe­op­le and ho­li­day­ma­kers, and the maritime museum is one of the major at­tra­ctions in the area. Here you can delve into the maritime history of the town and enjoy exhi­bi­tions on the shipping trade. The town centre features a lovely shopping street and here you can shop to your heart’s content and sample local de­li­ca­cies. And a mere stone’s throw from Marstal, you will find Eriks Hale Strand over­look­ing some of the colourful beach huts on the island.

The Great Belt Coast has one of Denmark’s most beautiful coast­li­nes. From north to south, you will find lovely beaches with fine sandy seafloors and clear water. There are no large waves or un­dercur­rents, making it safe for even the youngest ho­li­day­ma­kers to play by the water under su­per­vi­sion. The area attracts many water sports ent­hu­si­asts, as there is ample op­portu­ni­ty to explore on the water. Along the coast you will find several hiking trails where you can enjoy the views and the fresh sea breeze. You can also take a break at one of the area’s con­ve­ni­ent­ly located cafés and enjoy a well-deserved re­fres­h­ment.
