Fehmarn Belt

The Fehmarn Belt is one of numerous straits surrounding the Danish islands. It divides the Danish island Lolland and the German island Fehmarn. The Danish straits always had strategic value. Who owned straits - owned the navigation across the whole Baltic sea.

The sea is beautiful always - at any time of year and in any weather. We had a luck to observe the sea on the sunset when coming beams of the sun made paints especially bright and attractive for photo and video shooting.
