The easternmost town on the island of Fyn or Funen anchors the much traveled Storebaelt Bridge at its western point. This 700-year-old town is often overlooked for neighboring Odense, just 21 miles west. It's worth spending a few hours exploring the 1540 Old Torvet market square, once the site of 16th-century royal games, the ancient 1170 Nyborg Castle, venerable houses and the oldest open air theater in the country, Voldspil Nyborg. The theater hosts musicals and operettas on on the castle ramparts.

With the schooner Fionia - and via Visitnyborg we had a wonderful experience on the water. On the boat trip we came out around the small peninsula Avernakke and towards Holckenhavn Fjord, where we got a beautiful look at Dyrehave Mill and Holckenhavn Castle. At Knudshoved we sailed past Østerø - the nature area and peninsula, where both Slipshavn and Knudshoved are. Here we sailed past the old ferry port, where the car ferries for nearly half a hundred sailed cars across the Great Belt - before we sailed under the Great Belt Bridge and viewed one of the largest conctruction works of Denmark’s history. The tour ended with the entry through Nyborg’s Marina - and along the way on the 3 hour long trip we had a fantastic guide with from East Funen Museums, who had the most interesting stories to tell. We can highly recommend this beautiful sailing trip. Food must be brought - drinking must be purchased on board.
