Public Bus
During the main season, a public bus connects central Ærø towns with Søby on the northwest coast; from Søby, it’s just a few minutes by local taxi or a leisurely walk along quiet coastal roads toward the unmistakable silhouette of the lighthouse. The bus fare is usually 24–36 DKK for a single journey. Bear in mind that service is limited on weekends and evenings; pre-check return times or arrange taxis in advance.
