Set back from a wide beach and less than a kilometre's coastal walk from Kronborg car park (further if driving), this small camping ground is largely unshaded and a little cramped when fully occupied. There's a shop, laundry and 75kr bike hire.
Lokalbanen trains stop very close by at Marienlyst halt, two stops from Helsingør train station.
