Klinten Strand
You walk from Faaborg's half-timbered merchant houses straight onto pale sand where the Baltic laps slow and shallow. Behind you, church spires; ahead, the archipelago's green humps float on steel-blue water. Families spread picnic blankets while you wade out fifty meters and the sea still barely reaches your knees.
