Thurø
A small island linked to Svendborg by a causeway, with sheltered bays, sailing harbors and beaches. It is ideal for a half-day cycling trip.
Thurø is horseshoe-shaped and wraps around the calm Thurø Bay. The island has dense woodland, a sailing club, the fishing village of Grasten, and the Thurø Rev beach. It was once home to seafaring families and is now a place where Svendborg residents go to cycle and swim on weekends. From the old harbor in Svendborg it is about 15 minutes by bicycle across the causeway. The roads are flat, and you can cycle around the entire island.
