The man-made island and fortress, Flakfortet, in the Sound between Denmark and Sweden, is over 100 years old. 

Daily departures to Flakfortet

With several daily departures from Nyhavn harbour outside number 71, boat trips to it give you the chance to experience a true maritime atmosphere with an almost Mediterranean touch at Flakfortet island.
