East Jutland Fjords — Key Rules

  • • Mariager Fjord: 45m wide at narrowest — powerboat wash can be uncomfortable; limited swing room
  • • Eelgrass (ålegræs) anchoring ban — fine up to DKK 10,000; anchor in central channels only
  • • Bridge clearances are critical on Randers Fjord and Mariager Fjord — check Danish charts before entry
  • • Virtually tideless (0.2m) but wind-driven water level changes of up to 0.5m are possible in prolonged SW gales
