Charter Guide to the Danish South Sea

With this charter guide to one of the Baltic Sea’s most beautiful and popular sailing areas, Delius-Klasing Verlag adds a remarkable little book to its extensive range of specialist literature for recreational sailors. Although its title refers to the “Danish South Sea,” it also covers the entire southern part of Denmark’s large Baltic islands, Funen, Lolland, Falster, Møn and Zealand , as well as an extra trip to Copenhagen. The charter guide is thus a successful blend of sailing guide and travel guide.

The “Danish South Sea”

In its narrower sense, this popular Baltic sailing area comprises the varied island world between Funen’s southern coast and the islands of Lolland, Als and Ærø, as well as the Flensburg Fjord on the German side of the Baltic coast, extending to the entrance to the Schlei. Every year, countless recreational sailors cruise these waters. This charter guide is a reliable companion for charter skippers as they plan and carry out their voyages. It provides information on charter bases and departure ports, describes the most appealing destinations in this delightful area—reachable from Germany on a one- to two-week trip—and offers ideas for activities during your holiday. An extra trip to Copenhagen rounds out the book.

Insider tips

This charter guide provides the detailed information even less experienced skippers need, not only to find their way around this sailing area but also to take account of the particularities of Danish hospitality. This user-friendly little book, with its spiral binding, accompanies charter skippers from the moment they set out for charter bases on the German coast, where they begin their voyage into the Danish islands. Information about the sailing area, climate, wind and weather, as well as the land and its people, helps you prepare thoroughly and lays the foundation for an unforgettable sailing holiday.
Where charter skippers should moor and what they can safely skip, what to do ashore and which places are an absolute must—these are among the topics covered by area expert Tom Logisch. He has sailed the Danish South Sea with his family for many years and has received several awards, including the Family Sailing Prize from the DSV’s Cruising Division. The destinations reachable from Germany on a one- or two-week sailing trip are described in detail. Numerous sidebars introduce readers to the land and everyday life of our neighbours and share one or two valuable insider tips.
