Sightseeing cruises around Bornholm
Local sightseeing cruises around Bornholm allow you to discover the island from the sea — from the deck you can admire picturesque cliffs, lighthouses, and wild coastlines inaccessible from land. Trips to the nearby island of Christiansø are also frequently organized, offering the chance to experience its unique nature and historic architecture surrounded by the sea.
During the season, cruises vary in length and route — there are short one-hour sightseeing trips as well as longer excursions with stops for swimming or picnics. Cruises depart from the ports of Rønne, Allinge-Sandvig, and Gudhjem, allowing you to choose a route that fits your location. It’s a fantastic alternative to land travel and a great way to make your journey more scenic and relaxing.
Cruise from Gudhjem to Christiansø
Departure from the port of Gudhjem (on the island of Bornholm) and sailing to the Ertholmene archipelago – mainly to Christiansø and Frederiksø. The cruise operates during the summer season, offering daily departures. Once on the islands, you can explore the fortress, visit the lighthouse, and stroll through the peaceful streets. Perfect for those who want to "get away" from the hustle and bustle.

A cruise aboard the historic vessel M/S Thor, departing from Gudhjem and sailing along Bornholm’s scenic, rocky east coast (including the area around Helligdomsklipperne).

Cruise/Walk around the Hammeren Peninsula
Although not a typical "cruise," the Hammeren Peninsula is one of Bornholm’s most impressive viewpoints — with cliffs, a lighthouse, and breathtaking views of the Baltic Sea. You can reach the area by boat or combine a short cruise with a coastal hike. It’s a great option for those who wish to blend a sea trip with a bit of land exploration and discover less typical routes.
