Idyllic harbour on the southern shore of the island of the same name.
NV Cruising Guide
Navigation
The harbour is lit, but you can only approach it during the day, as the fairway to the harbour (Lindholm Dyb) is unlit. You have to keep well clear of the shoal Konemade Hage, and then head for the entrance at 360°.
Berths
There are very limited berthing possibilities on the inside of the west pier at 1.5 - 2m water depth. The entrance of the harbour and the ferry pier must remain free.
Surroundings
You can get limited supplies at the island grocer. There is a ferry connection to Bandholm.
NV Land Guide
Besides a cozy little harbor, the island offers nothing worth highlighting. The tree population has almost completely fallen victim to agriculture, the orchards and a few poplars once excluded. Sparse remains of bends still line some fields, but they are completely absent from most of the fields.
If it weren't for the aforementioned orchards, one could overlook the flat island from shore to shore. A few farms line the dead-straight island road. Despite increasing holiday home development, the supply situation is poor.
The small island museum near the church displays local farming history from 1850 to 1960. However, it is only open on Saturdays over lunchtime or by prior arrangement by telephone.
A causeway leads to neighbouring island Lilleø to the north. As the name suggests, this islet is even smaller than the main island. Nevertheless, the walk is worthwhile. To spare the footwear, you can also use rental bikes for exploring the island.
