Panorama Photo

In Denmark Sjællands Odde (meaning "the pointed land of Sjælland") is mainly known for its ferry-connection with the Djursland peninsula in Jylland. The port and a ferry can be seen here, as well as a part of Djursland, on the other side of the water.

More surprisingly, the island of Hesselø in Kattegat lurks in a narrow "window". This must be about as south as one can see this island. From the northernmost coast of Sjælland it is also visible, but since the coastal cliffs are lower, only the high parts can be seen, unlike here, where much more can be seen.

The island was the center of a comical dispute in th 80's, because Sweden asked: "Are you sure it is danish?". A surprisingly harsh debate followed, until the swedes acknowledged danish surpremacy (imagine us saying: "Greifswalder Oie...are you sure it is german?"). It was later revealed, that Sweden had "issues" with the russan sea-border in The Baltic Sea, and therefore didn't want to be seen as "going soft" on their neighbourghs.
