Local tips
- Arrive earlier on summer weekends to claim a favorable picnic spot or a bench with sea views—the area draws more locals in good weather.
- Bring water shoes if you plan to wade far, as the seabed may be pebbly or have the occasional seaweed patch further out.
- Public toilets and outdoor showers are available near the main entrance, but these may have limited opening times outside the summer season.
- Local ice cream kiosks set up at the beach entrance from late spring; try traditional Danish soft ice for a regional treat.
- Be mindful that parking is limited close to the water, particularly during Knuthenborg Safari Park peak periods.
