Nestled on the southeastern shore of Zealand, just west of the town of Køge (approximately 55.45° N, 12.18° E), lies Kienitz Marina – a modest yet inviting harbor originally transformed from a small fishing pier in 2003 into a haven for pleasure boats and yachts.

This charming marina provides berths for about 30 pleasure boats and a handful of slip-in berths for larger yachts, making it an ideal base for exploring the scenic beauty of Køge Bay. Its location offers easy access to the nearby islands of Saltholm and Peberholm, as well as opportunities for short coastal cruises toward Copenhagen’s harbor.

With convenient proximity to Copenhagen Airport (CPH), roughly 20 km away and a 20–25 minute drive via the E20, Kienitz Marina is best enjoyed during late spring through early autumn (May–September).
