Getting there...

Fanø is the northernmost of the three Danish Wadden Sea islands off the coast of Esbjerg. To the north, Grådyb separates the island from Skallingen.

The Fanø ferry departs regularly from Esbjerg Harbour to Nordby (three times an hour in the summer months) and the sailing time is 10-15 minutes. You only need to pay for a ticket to the island – the return trip is free.

Around the island...

Most of the island is open to the public – apart from the south-easterly sand banks of Keld Sand and Trinden, which are off limits. However, you can observe the birds on these sandbanks
through binoculars from an appropriate distance.

It is relatively simple to find your way around the island. Buses run from Nordby to Rindby
and Sønderho. We recommend cycling around the island as there are cycle paths alongside the busiest roads on the island. You can hire cycles in Nordby, Rindby and Sønderho.
