Discover Egsmark Strand

If you’re looking for a coastal hotel destination, Egsmark Strand offers several points to consider when choosing a location: preserved fishing huts bearing traces of former fishing communities, a running route along the beach and paths, conditions suitable for kitesurfing, and a cycle path along Kystvejen. Shared beach features and the relative location to Ebeltoft are also distinguishing factors. You can decide which aspect of your stay to prioritize based on local history, activities by the water or cycling.

Coast and local history

At Egsmark Strand, visible traces of former fishing communities can still be seen in some of the preserved fishing huts. The huts link the area to its fishing history, adding a cultural and historical dimension alongside the beach activities. If local history is also a factor in your choice of location, this connection provides a specific point of interest.

The beaches at Egsmark, Handrup and Lyngsbæk are sheltered at the end of Ebeltoft Vig. Calm water that deepens only gradually characterizes the beaches at Egsmark Strand, Handrup Strand, Lyngsbæk Strand and Femmøller Strand. Thus, two coastal features come together at Egsmark: the sheltered location of the group of three and the water conditions of the four named holiday destinations. Of these four destinations, Egsmark Strand is the closest to Ebeltoft. When choosing a location, you can therefore consider shared coastal features and the relative location to Ebeltoft separately.

Activities on the beach

The beach and paths at Egsmark Strand are used as a running route. Both areas are therefore suitable for jogging. Egsmark Strand is also suitable for kitesurfing; conditions may vary depending on the weather. If you’re planning to kitesurf, take the weather on the day of your visit into account. The two activities also differ in terms of planning: for jogging, the beach and paths are relevant; for kitesurfing, conditions depend on the weather.

There is a beach volleyball court at Egsmark Strand. As facilities like this can change, check before your visit whether the court will be available. There is a parking lot near Egsmark Strand. If you need to use it, check that it is currently accessible before setting off.

Cycle path and choice of location

Kystvejen runs along the beach area of Egsmark Strand, with a continuous cycle path from Femmøller Strand to Ebeltoft. The running route covers the beach and paths at Egsmark Strand, while the cycle path has two named endpoints. If you’d like to include cycling in your stay, you can consider the connection between Femmøller Strand and Ebeltoft as a separate planning factor. The three activity options therefore differ in focus: jogging uses the beach and paths, kitesurfing depends on weather conditions, and the cycle route connects two named places.
