Ulvshale Strand


Popular with windsurfers, Møn’s best beach is a gently sloping arc of mixed white sand and grey stones curling along the Ulvshale Peninsula, which is edged by one of the few virgin woodlands left in Denmark (look out for adders).

There's a car park right by the beach, around 6km north of Stege.
