A little about Omø

The inhabitants of Omø are extremely hospitable, and farming and fishing remain the main industries on the island to this day. The island has approx. 185 inhabitants, the majority of which live in the town of Omø or the fishing village of Kirkehavn. The island can be viewed from Skovbanken, the highest point on Omø at 24 metres above sea level. 



There are no flights to Omø, but, during the summer months, there are eight ferry connections daily between Omø and Stigsnæs, with direct bus connections to and from Skælskør. Whilst lying on the beach on Omø, with the sand between your toes and listening to the waves lapping against the shore, you have time to think about things – and the time is all yours!
