Tunø Båden

Step aboard Postbåden Tunø and experience the maritime side of Skagen from a different perspective. During the approximately 90-minute cruise, the boat travels through the harbour and continues along the coast, while the town, dunes and open horizon slowly pass by. The trip gives both children and adults the chance to enjoy the fresh sea air and see Skagen from the water.

Harbour cruise along the coast of Skagen

From the boat, you have a good view of Skagen Havn and the activity around the quays. Depending on wind, currents and weather conditions, the trip may continue along the coast towards some of the area’s best-known landmarks. The route often passes Skagen Sønderstrand, Kongevillaen and Det Grå Fyr before approaching Grenen, where the two seas meet. As conditions on the water can change, the exact route may vary from one trip to another.

A historic motor ferry from 1965

Postbåden Tunø is an authentic motor ferry from 1965. The boat’s classic appearance and gentle pace contribute to the maritime atmosphere during the trip. The experience is not only about the sights along the way, but also about the voyage itself and the feeling of being close to the sea, the harbour and the distinctive nature surrounding Denmark’s northernmost town.

See Skagen from a new perspective

From the sea, the landscape around Skagen appears different from how it looks on land. You can follow the shape of the coastline, see distinctive buildings from a distance and observe the transition between harbour, town and nature. It is a good idea to bring windproof clothing, as it can feel cooler on the water than in town, even on warm days.
