Amager Beach

For now this section is about Denmark - and mainly the area around Copenhagen.

A large, artificial (but very nice) beach out towards Oresund. Lots of sandy beach, but also access to the deeper parts via the piers. Fishing is allowed from October 1st to April 30th - essentially outside the bathing season - and the whole beach can be wade fished.



The whole area is worth a visit just for a walk along the water. It's a popular spot for Copenhagen residents, and on nice weekend days the whole beach is buzzing with life - even in the cold season.

The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher was updated to a new publishing system early March 2025, and there may still be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
