Thurø
Around the year 1900, the shipping community on Thurø was home to more than 100 schooners. Today, the island is a vibrant, close-knit community.
Enjoy the scenery at Thurø Rev
With grazing horses, interesting vegetation, and a varied bird life, Thurø Rev is the most scenic place on Thurø – and popular among beachgoers. There is a stunning view of Svendborgsund, Langeland, and Tåsinge from the outermost tip of Thurø Rev.
Smørmosen – a popular choice for a day at the beach
A fun and unique miniature golf course, a large playground area with free games and activities as well as tables and benches, and right next to all of this is one of Svendborg’s loveliest beaches complete with a bathing jetty and a slide – no wonder Smørmosen is such a popular excursion spot!
The Old Fishermen’s Cottages at Gambøt
The quaint fishermen’s cottages at Gambøt are overlooking Thurø Bund, a deep natural harbour. In the glory days of shipping, the harbour was used for winter storage of large ships, and at times, over 100 schooners wintered here.
