Rent a holiday apartment in Østerby

Renting a holiday apartment in Østerby takes you to a place where the harbour, coast and island history can shape your travel plans. Østerby, also known as Østerby Havn, is located on the northeast coast of the Danish island of Læsø. The fishing and leisure harbour is a defining feature of Østerby Havn. When looking for a holiday apartment or holiday home, Østerby may be a sensible choice if you want the harbour and coast to be the focus of your everyday activities.

Harbour, coast and countryside around Østerby

At the harbour, maritime impressions meet the local beach. A local beach lies next to the harbour; Hvidebakker and Danzigmann are other coastal destinations on Læsø, each with its own character. Forest, paths, heathland and dunes shape the landscape around Østerby. At Østerby Havn, you can also plan experiences on and beneath the water as possible parts of your trip.

This leads to a clear question when choosing your location: Should your stay mainly revolve around the harbour and local coast, or would you like to combine these impressions with other beaches and landscapes on Læsø?
