ÆRØXPRESSEN

The shortest way to Ærø

When you plan to visit beautiful Ærø, you should definitely choose to travel with ÆrøXpressen, a new and modern ferry that only takes 50 minutes to sail from Rudkøbing on Langeland to Ærø. The ferry docks in the middle of the island's maritime capital Marstal and once you have experienced the island's maritime history on a visit to marstal maritime museum, Ærø is open to you with countless experiences of both historical and natural nature.

To sail through the South Funen archipelago is like a cruise, passing by Strynø on one side and uninhabited islets on the other while you can glimpse Birkholm and Halmø in the horizon.

Use the short crossing to leave everyday hustle and bustle behind you, you are on your way to Ærø, an authentic all year community with welcoming kindness to everyone. Let Ærø into your heart and keep coming back. We welcome you with open arms on the ferry and ashore.

The lime kiln, one of Marstal's landmarks, here nicely captured by @prydsphoto 📸Frederiksøen, where the lime kiln is located, was used as a repair place for ships until it was leased out for lime burning in 1863. The last lime on the island was burnt around 1939, but the fine kiln still stands. The Friends of Sønderrenden Association now owns and maintains the lime kiln.From the parking lot at Eriks Hale, it is a lovely walk of about 1.5 km to the lime kiln 😊#visitaeroe #ærøxpressen #altervandvedsidenafærø #marstal #kalkovnen
