Here the beach turns into a stony shoreline, that continues 30 km down the east coast of the peninsula of Djursland, facing the Kattegat between Denmark and Sweden.

Facing east away from the predominant westerly winds, and protected from the Atlantic, increases the amount of good beech days.

It is not overcrowded, as Denmark, as well as the rest of Scandinavia, is significantly less populated than the neighbouring central European countries.

Katholm Strandvej runs parallel to the major part of the beach, with free parking and access to the shoreline without long walks.

This, and a coastline facing east, with no tide or current to speak of under normal summer conditions, makes the beach child friendly and safe.
