On the water

Flat water, sheltered by the archipelago islands. Sandy bottom with scattered stones (small and large) — caution with long fins. Shallow zone near shore, then depth increases quickly. Seasonal Baltic seaweed. Blue Flag beach. Campsite 100 m from the water.

Hazards

Stones (small and large) mixed in the sandy bottom — risk of fin damage. Ærøskøbing-Svendborg ferry traffic — watch the navigation channel near the harbour. Seaweed can tangle lines in summer. Water gets deep quickly offshore.
