hy travel all the way to the island of Bornholm to fly fish for sea
trout when there are numerous other coastal areas all across north-
ern Europe that are within closer range? Well, Bornholm has a
certain je ne sais quoi, and not just when it comes to the fishing,
which, by the way, ranks among the best in the world. With its small, idyllic
seaports, captivating panorama views and exquisite food culture, Bornholm is an
ambient and pleasant place to vacation. Everything is within immediate range:
the rocky shorelines and white sandy beaches, Svaneke Brewery and the many
local smoke houses, the ancient round churches, fortresses and castle ruins, and
the numerous vantage points found along Bornholm’s 158km-long coastline.
Bornholm is the perfect place for an active holiday and its coastal realms offer the
perfect playground for the sea trout fisherman – a place where the dream of
catching a silvery Baltic Sea trophy is within reach.
