Sandkås: Hotels and Accommodation

Coast

Sandkås is a settlement on a sandy beach on Bornholm’s rugged north coast; since the late 19th century, tourism has been the predominant local economic sector. The beach combines sandy coves with rugged cliffs and lies among the rocks in northern Bornholm.

Surrounding cliffs and trees protect the beach and create a relatively secluded setting with views. The beach area is suitable for swimming. At Lille Sandkås, there is a jetty and a small children’s pool, while boulders protect the inner waters from waves.

There is a car park near the beach, as well as public toilets. A small kiosk and a jetty are available in summer.
