Pictures from Gotland, Bornholm, the Curonian spit, archipelagoes and other less populated, but interesting places in N&B region

Hello, everyone!

As the Nordic and Baltic region is well known for well preserved natural and urban spaces, I would like to create a space for sharing pictures from the less populated, but interesting places that are present in our region: islands, lagoons, archipelagoes and etc., but are not necessarilly included in the UNESCO heritage list.
It would be great if we posted different areal and 'skyline' pictures (self made or from the net) from the places you find to be interesting in our region.

I will, but a little bit later, if that's ok to you. Actually, everyone is free to start anytime.
The title is long, however it is informative enough (i hope) to understand that the thread is dedicated to usually forgotten, but interesting places in our region.

Even though some might think that Copenhagen is the only beautiful place in Denmark, I am here to say that couldn't be more wrong:

The Danish island of Bornholm is situated in the Baltic Sea. Sweden is allowed to get it back if they return Scania back to Denmark.

Bornholm is amazing, indeed. I've been there on a study practice trip and had travelled quite alot there, since the task was to analyze the geology of the island. It is an interesting place from the geological point of view, since the different geological structures change there alot in very short distances.
Actually, i will post some pictures from Bornholm and Skåne, but a bit later.

Superb photos, I don't recall Bornholm was so pretty when I spent one week there
Gotland - haven't seen it yet, but have eaten a lot of flowers, truffles and herbs from there

Falsterbo is an amazing jewel in the crown of the Baltic Sea!
I go there to visit my parents every summer and I can´t wait to go again in July!
I also love Curonian, Rügen, Usedom, Gotland, Bornholm, etc.
Absolutely wonderful summer beaches, nature pearls and girls!
