Klintholm Harbor

Klintholm Harbor is a lively marina and fishing port on the south coast of Møn, combining working harbour grit with relaxed holiday charm. Set in the small village of Klintholm Havn, it offers yacht berths, seaside restaurants, ice-cream kiosks, a child-friendly beach and access to boat trips along the dramatic chalk cliffs of Møns Klint. It is also a historic site, with a shoreline memorial to concentration camp prisoners rescued here in 1945, adding a poignant layer to the otherwise easygoing waterfront atmosphere.

Local tips

Bring or rent windproof layers even in summer; the exposed Baltic waterfront can feel significantly cooler than inland Møn once the breeze picks up.
If you plan a boat trip to Møns Klint, aim for a clear, calm day and book in advance during July and August when departures can fill quickly.
Anglers targeting sea trout or garfish should pack proper waders and check local regulations, including seasonal rules and required fishing permits.
Take a short stroll to the memorial stone for the 1945 Stutthof rescue; it is easy to miss but provides powerful historical context to the harbour.
Supermarket and basic services are limited outside the main summer season, so consider stocking up in Stege if visiting in late autumn or winter.

Getting There

Bus from Stege on Møn

From Stege, take the regional bus service toward Klintholm Havn; the journey typically takes 25–35 minutes depending on stops. Buses run several times a day, with more departures in the summer season and fewer in the late evening. A one-way adult ticket usually costs in the range of 30–50 DKK, and tickets can be purchased via Danish public transport apps or from machines at larger stops. Low-floor buses make this the most accessible public-transport option for visitors without a car.
Car from Vordingborg via Møn

Driving from Vordingborg to Klintholm Harbor via the bridge to Møn generally takes 45–60 minutes, depending on traffic and season. The route follows main roads across the island and is straightforward for most drivers. Parking around the harbour is usually free or low-cost, but spaces closest to the water can fill quickly on sunny summer weekends and during school holidays, so arriving earlier in the day is advisable.
Cycling from Stege

For a scenic approach, many visitors cycle from Stege to Klintholm Harbor, following quiet country roads and designated bike routes across rolling farmland. The ride is roughly 16 km and typically takes 45–70 minutes each way for moderately fit cyclists. The route is mostly flat with a few gentle hills and is suitable for standard city or touring bikes. Rental bicycles are available in Stege during the main season; expect to pay around 100–150 DKK for a day’s hire.
Boat arrival by private yacht

Sailors approaching Klintholm Harbor from the Baltic Sea will find a well-marked entrance channel and a large marina with visitor berths. Passage times vary widely by departure port, but the harbour is commonly used as a stopover on routes along Denmark’s south coast or between Germany, Sweden and Zealand. Harbour dues for visiting yachts are typically charged per night based on boat length, often in the range of 150–300 DKK including standard facilities such as water and restrooms. Check local notices for any seasonal constraints related to offshore wind farm activity.

Harbour village between working boats and holiday yachts

Klintholm Harbor sits on the eastern edge of Møn, where the Baltic Sea reaches deep into a man‑made basin lined with fishing vessels, leisure craft and visiting yachts. Built in 1878 by the owner of the nearby Klintholm Estate to export local produce and chalk, the harbour has grown into a combined fishing port and marina, with a village that feels purpose-built around the water. Along the quays you see nets drying, fuel berths and cranes alongside polished sailboats and visiting cruising yachts. Around 200 permanent residents call this compact settlement home, but in summer the waterfront can feel much bigger, with masts, campervans and cyclists all converging on the same sunny promenade.

Seaside life: cafés, fresh fish and family beach time

The main draw today is the relaxed harbourfront life. Several small restaurants and cafés cluster around the basins, many with outdoor seating that catches both evening light and the smell of salt on the air. Freshly landed fish is a local specialty, served in simple harbour eateries or sold at a dedicated fish shop when the boats come in. Just beyond the quays lies a broad, gently shelving sandy beach that is particularly suited to children. The shallow water and typically modest waves of this stretch of the Baltic make paddling and casual swimming inviting in summer. On warm days, the scene is one of ice creams, kids with nets, and families wandering between playgrounds, jetties and the shoreline.

Gateway to Møns Klint and wild Baltic seascapes

Klintholm Harbor is one of the main access points for exploring Møns Klint, the island’s famous white chalk cliffs. In the summer season, boat excursions depart from the harbour and trace the base of the cliffs, giving a sea‑level perspective on the towering formations and the lush beech forest that tops them. Anglers are equally well served. The coast from Klintholm east towards Møn’s lighthouse is known for sea trout and garfish, with the best seasons in spring and autumn for trout, and from early May for garfish. The water here is shallow, and waders are recommended if you are serious about reaching the prime fishing spots. For less committed visitors, simply watching local anglers working the shoreline can be part of the harbour’s quiet entertainment.

History in the harbour: from trade port to rescue haven

Although the village feels contemporary and holiday‑oriented, Klintholm Harbor carries a significant historical episode. On 5 May 1945, the day Denmark was liberated at the end of the Second World War, a barge carrying hundreds of starving prisoners from the Stutthof concentration camp drifted into the harbour with the help of a German tug. Local residents rallied to provide food, shelter and medical care, saving most of those on board. A memorial stone stands near the shore where the barge came in, marking the spot and commemorating the victims and survivors. It is a sober counterpoint to the otherwise carefree waterfront, and spending a few quiet moments here adds depth to an understanding of this coastline and its role in wider European history.

Marina facilities and the feel of a nautical hub

For sailors, Klintholm offers a large marina with berths for visiting yachts, electricity and water on the pontoons, and easy access at all tides. The harbour also functions as a service port for offshore wind farms in the Baltic, so you may see crew transfer vessels and workboats alongside cruising yachts and traditional fishing craft. Basic amenities such as restrooms, showers, a small supermarket and tourist information are available close to the quays, making it a practical base for exploring Møn or preparing for Baltic passages. In the evenings, the forest of masts, clinking rigging and glow from restaurant windows give the harbour a distinctly nautical atmosphere.

Seasons, light and the character of Møn’s coast

Møn enjoys relatively mild summers, with long, bright days and temperatures usually in the comfortable range for sitting outdoors by the water. Winter brings shorter, often grey days, when the harbour quietens but remains an atmospheric place to watch shifting Baltic weather and the play of wind on the sea. Across seasons, what defines Klintholm is its blend of working harbour authenticity and low‑key seaside resort feeling. Whether you come to board a boat for Møns Klint, to cast a fishing line, or simply to wander the quays with a cone of locally made ice cream, the setting offers a gentle, distinctly Danish coastal experience.
