Yacht charter Maasholm
Glowing rape fields, rolling hills, quaint thatched houses and in the middle the Schlei with its characteristic Nooren - these are the images we want to see on a yacht charter vacation in Maasholm. In order to maintain this level of quality, the region has been part of the Schlei Nature Park for several years. In order to immerse oneself in the beauty of the region, the nature experience center Maasholm for example offers events, especially for children there are beautiful participatory offers in summer. Maasholm itself is situated on a peninsula in the middle of the Schleim estuary.

From here you can sail along the Schlei river to Schleswig and enjoy the peace and beauty of the region. On the way you will also pass, for example, the smallest town in Germany, Arnis. A small highlight for many sailors is certainly the museum harbor in Kappeln, where many cargo and fishing boats have found their last home. Every year on Ascension Day, the "Herring Regatta" to Sønderborg in Denmark starts from here. The proximity to the neighboring country is already revealed by the many place names with the ending "-by" on the Schlei. The regions are united by their common heritage from the Viking Age, which can be marveled at in the Viking Museum in Haithabu, for example. Here near Schleswig, there are two other impressive finds to be discovered in the Archaeological Museum in the baroque Gottorf Castle. The first is bog bodies and their history, and the second is a well-preserved boat over 1500 years old in the Nydam Hall. In addition, the exhibits include objects of the Neanderthals, which are over 120,000 years old.
From Maasholm to the southern islands of Denmark
Those who are drawn to the Baltic Sea can sail along the fjord coast in both directions. Of course, the "DanishSouth Sea" is also easily accessible from Maasholm. On a weekend trip you can sail around the island of Als, for a longer vacation trip you can sail around the island of Funen. Because of the short distance you can also do an island hopping between the small islands south of Fyn. The harbors have a good infrastructure and because the area is more sheltered, it is also very suitable for sailing beginners and families.
