Issehoved
The northernmost tip of Samsø, a long, narrow spit of gravel and sand. The waves from both sides meet at its tip, and it is where the island's sea views and shell-collecting end.
Issehoved is the northernmost point of Samsø. A slender spit made of gravel and sand extends into the Kattegat strait, where waves from both sides meet at the tip. On clear days, the sea and sky blend together, and you can see the Jutland coast in the distance. There is a small parking lot near the spit, about 10 minutes' drive from Nordby village, or you can hike there along the sea-cliff trail from the Nordby Bakker. It is a good place to watch seabirds, collect stones and photograph sunsets, but the currents are strong, so swimming is not recommended. There are no facilities at all, so bring plenty of water.
