LOCATION
The capital of the island is Rønne and this is most probably where you will start your exploration of Bornholm Island. Nevertheless, the surfing hotspots are located in the eastern part of Bornholm, mostly in the Eastwind watersports centre in Balka and on the Dueodde Strand. Both places are located around 30 kilometres from the island’s capital. Bornholm Island can be accessed either by the ferry from Ystad (Sweden), Køge (Zealand, Denmark) or Sassnitz (Rügen Island, Germany). In summertime there are direct ferries from Świnoujście (Poland). At Rønne there is also a small airport which services flights to Copenhagen. The geographical location of Bornholm Island’s capital Rønne is: 55°06′N 14°42′E.
BORNHOLM SURFING HOTSPOTS
The two main watersports locations are in the southeastern part of Bornholm. They are approximately half an hour’s drive from Rønne. Both places possess broad white sandy beaches and their shallow waters are perfect for beginners to practise in. The places are east-oriented and have typically low flat waves but energetic winds. The Eastwind watersports centre in Balka is located near the quaint old fishing village of Snogebæk.
Dueodde Strand is the most famous beach on Bornholm. According to visitDenmark? the sand is ultra-fine and very inviting. The water is clear and clean with lots of sand bars, so there is both shallow and deep water close to shore. The beach stretches for several kilometres along both sides of the southern tip of the island.
ATTRACTIONS
