Dark Sky spot - Strandparken, Nykøbing Mors

The beach in Nykøbing is worth a visit when it’s dark! Where else, so close to the city center, can you experience the tightly packed starry night sky?

Thanks to the completely dark horizon both in the North and the East, it is one of the easiest places to get to and at the same time experience dark skies. When water is completely calm and quiet, you will see the doubling of planets and stars – as they also can “shine” in the Limfjord! And remember the unforgettable nights, when you can experience Full Moon rising over the island of Fur, which is located on the other side of the fjord. So, bring a blanket with you and experience what we call Sea, Sand and Stars-vacation!

 

  • Well-adapted for experiencing: Northern Lights, Meteor showers, Noctilucent Clouds, Bioluminescent algae, Moonrise
  • Parking: Nykøbing Mors hospital parking


Dark Sky in the Limfjord's country will take you on a time travel through billions of stars, offer an ease for your souls and non the less create lots of unforgettable memories of the fascinating night sky phenomena.

Being outside at night

It is our common responsibility to respect natural environment, especially as many animal species are active during night time. It is important to switch the light off, when there is no need for using it – doing this will help you to avoid affecting your night vision and others in the area. Remember not to leave anything but your footprints out in the nature.
