The title “When September Ends” is also the programme of this very attractive trip. Experience shows that the transition from late summer to golden October takes place during this period. The special light and the usually still mild evenings make this trip a unique experience.
Planned are several stops at the pearls of the Baltic Sea, the islands in the Danish South Sea, each of which has its own unique character. On the island of Aerø, you will come across the small town of Marstal, which has an interesting shipping museum, and Aerøskøbing, where you can be enchanted by Hans Christian Andersen’s fairytale world. On Fyn, Denmark’s second largest island, we can moor in lively towns such as Fåborg with its medieval city centre. Sønderborg on the island of Als is also one of the larger towns and even Queen Margrethe spends a few weeks here every year on the royal yacht Dannebrog. But it is not just the big cities, it is also the smaller towns and islands that make this region so charming. South of Fyn, between the Little Belt and the Great Belt, is a chain of islands not to be missed. On Lyø, Avernakø and our personal favourite Strynø, you walk into the village between maize fields and fruit trees. You will find a small shopkeeper, maybe even a krø (Danish for café), and a few flea market items and food items are sold in front of each house. Money in a jam jar and that’s it – typical Denmark! These are the quiet islands for true nature lovers.
Of course, the German Baltic coast also has its charms. In the land of fjords between Kiel, Eckernförde, the Schlei and Flensburg, where Vikings once sought shelter and settled their villages, many fishermen now live, but there is also a lot of tourism. Between steep coasts and rapeseed fields are campsites, marinas and small towns with half-timbered houses.
