John and Kyla Brand explored the Baltic coasts of Denmark and Germany in 2014, 2015 and 2017. This delightful cruising ground offers welcoming harbours, gentle scenery, pretty villages and historic cities, with sheltered waters and reliable winds. In this talk John will introduce the islands of the ‘Danish Archipelago’, with its sleepy towns and pastoral landscapes, and the German Baltic coast with the Schleswig Fiords, spectacular Hanseatic towns and the holiday islands of Rügen and Fehmarn. Some minor navigational challenges add extra interest, and the area amply repays anything from a few days nosing around to a full season’s cruising.
