Local tips
- Wear sturdy shoes: clay along the cliffs can be slippery, especially after rain or near the water’s edge.
- Bring binoculars for excellent opportunities to spot migratory birds, especially in spring and autumn.
- Fossil hunting is popular; small fossils may be found embedded in the cliff faces, but always respect protected areas.
- Parking is free and available right beside the lagoon, but can fill up in summer—arrive early on sunny days.
- A small café operates seasonally; pack snacks and drinks if visiting in winter or early spring.
Getting There
-
Driving
The lagoon is best reached by car via the picturesque roads traversing Mors Island, passing through open countryside and small villages.

-
Public Transport
From the central areas of Limfjord or Nykøbing Mors, regional buses connect to villages on the northern part of Mors Island. Disembark at the nearest local stop and continue by foot or bicycle for the final stretch (usually a 15–25 minute walk through farmlands and near coastal views). Bus fares within the Limfjord region typically cost around DKK 22–34 for a single journey.
-
Cycling
Cyclists can follow scenic island routes from Nykøbing Mors or other towns, passing distinctive landmarks and panoramic shores—the final segment offers wide views of the surrounding fjord.
