On one side of Nakskov Harbour you will find the cozy Nyhavn atmosphere, with harbor houses, small streets to the city and yachts. On the other side you will find an active industrial port with several thousand jobs.
Nakskov Harbour Marina
As a yachtsman, you are very welcome to call at Nakskov Harbour, where there is plenty of room for any boat and you have perfect access to the town through the beautiful alleys that run into the center with shops close by, as well as a shower, toilet and WiFi included in the harbor fee.
Johanna
Denmark's oldest two-masted schooner is called Johanne and is based in Nakskov. She was built in 1895 at Øxenbjerg Værft in Svendborg. You can go on holiday cruises, fishing trips and day trips with Johanne.
The mail boat
The post boat sails public tours around Nakskov Fjord during the summer. You can also book your own private tours with the boat.
Nakskov Harbour 1
Nakskov Havn 1 is a historic tugboat from 1914 built at Nakskov Wooden Shipyard. The boat has been preserved and maintained by the Association for the Preservation of the Tugboat Nakskov Havn 1 since 2002.
The customs house and the port building
The customs house and the harbor building are two beautiful buildings from 1915. At the top of the harbor building you can see the special clock and lighthouse. The harbor building is being renovated and will have new exciting functions in the future.
The Queen's Warehouse
Queen Dowager Sophie had a good sense of economics and trade. Through her connections, she gained great insight into, for example, grain and hop prices. And she always bought when the price was lowest. The large purchases were probably the reason why she bought farms in Nakskov in 1591 for a granary – including Dronningens Pakhus, which is Denmark's oldest port building. An association has been established for the restoration of this historic building.
The industrial port
Nakskov Port is an active industrial port with many production workplaces, from which goods are shipped to the whole world. In fact, all the old shipyard buildings are now filled with new companies and the port has been expanded several times to allow access to more and larger ships. At the blade factory at Nakskov Port, some of the world's largest wind turbine blades are produced, which are shipped to the rest of the world.
