Balka beach is located in the southern part of Bornholm, close to Snogebæk town.
Melsted beach is located on Bornholms’s east coast, close to Gudhjem. The beach is child-friendly, and at one end of the beach, a small stream runs down to the sea. Here children can play for hours building dams. At Melsted beach, there is also a bathing jetty to avoid the pebbles on the seabed.
Sandvig beach can be found at the bottom of Hammerknuden on the northern part of Bornholm. The beach is wide and has lots of room for fun and play. In addition, you get a beautiful view of the rock formations breaking the beachy landscape. Sandvig beach has good parking facilities, a kiosk and restrooms.
Boderne beach has room for lots of fun for the whole family. Find your little oasis in the dunes and let the fun unfold. You can jump from the big rocks in the water or build amazing sandcastles by the water.
