FROM TOE DIPPING TO SHOPPING

Our area offers great variety from small, cosy villages near market towns with cobbled streets to huge commercial towns - with a lively café life and a busy city centre with shopping street, specialist stores and shopping centres.

HOLBÆK - BETWEEN FJORD AND WOODS

The beautiful old market town of Holbæk is located on the shores of the Isefjord.

Here it is possible to step direct from the yacht’s deck into the shopping street that provides a rich selection of exciting shops and cosy cafés. The harbour area itself also offers a splendid choice of eating places and other culinary temptations. You can also enjoy the town, the fjord and Tuse Næs from the water on a cruise onboard the Hørby Boat, which is electrified, driven by solar cells on the roof.

KALUNDBORG – ON THE EDGE OF SEALAND IN THE CENTRE OF DENMARK

Kalundborg has its fjord as next door neighbour. From the lively activities in the Harbour Park, the market town stretches up the slopes, revealing itself as a place brimming with soul and charm. Kalundborg also offers Denmark’s largest collection of medieval houses in the old part of town called Højbyen, where you can visit the Church of Our Lady with its five towers, which is the pretty landmark of Kalundborg.

SLAGELSE - SHOPPING TOWN

Shopping town number one in West Sealand offers a host of charming nooks and corners inviting to relax with a cup of coffee, lunch or brunch. A varied selection of shops are awaiting you in the heart of town, where you can also enjoy the sight of the guard hussars riding through town, or delve into the local history.

SKÆLSKØR – TOWN OF ART

The small colourful Chaussee stones appear like small artistic oases in the charming cobbled street of Algade that is winding its way through the harbour town of Skælskør. This market town has become a gathering point for a large number of ceramists and artists, who welcome visitors to their workshops. Another waterfront experience is a trip by the Skjelskør V where you will get a 1.5 hour fjord tour

KORSØR – MARITIME TOWN

Water is the keyword when it comes to Korsør. Here you will find everything from the impressive Great Belt Bridge to small cosy fishermen’s cottages and the former ferry port, Halsskov Færgehavn, with a multitude of action and activities. Korsør Fortress that dates back to the Middle Ages still has cannons aiming at the Great Belt.

SORØ – ART AND HISTORY

On the shores of Sorø Lake stands the Abbey Church, which is worth a visit, or you could take a stroll through the Academy Garden, an enjoyable sight with its change in character according to season.

Sorø presents a wide range of cultural gems that you will see while enjoying the shopping facilities in Storgade and Holberg Arkaden or during a cup of coffee or a lunch at one of the local eating places. Lille Claus is the boat cruising Lake Sorø Sø. It is here possible to jump off and on as you please if you want to take a closer look at the city’s attractions or the landscape in general.
