Boat trip and whale watching with Mira III on the Little Beltby Mira III

Boat trip and whale watching on the Little Belt departing from Middelfart See porpoises and perhaps seals on our whale watching on the Little Belt. Guinea pigs are small cetaceans, which are found in large numbers at Middelfart. On the trip, our crew tells us about the animals and the sea around us. The population of porpoises in the Little Belt is one of the densest in the world. We enjoy this on our whale safaris, where there is a very high probability of meeting the small whales. On the boat trip there is a story about the behavior and life of the guinea pigs in the Little Belt. The route is not entirely planned in advance. However, we guarantee that we sail under at least one of the Little Belt bridges, and we make every effort to read the current conditions and sail where we usually meet the most porpoises in accordance with the given conditions, trying each time to lay out the route that is most beautiful and most likely to see porpoises. Often we also see seals on a whale watching tour in Middelfart, and Lillebælt is one of the few places in Denmark where we see Alke and Lomvier, which are otherwise mostly seen in northern Scandinavia. Every once in a while we meet the Sea Eagle. The nature in and around the Little Belt is very special — and has been proclaimed a marine natural national park. There is a lot of nature and a lot of stories. We probably won't be able to tell you everything there is to experience here, because it's also important to just be present and enjoy the tour and nature. You are very welcome to bring picnic basket with, for example, coffee & cake or drinks and snacks. Welcome aboard for the “guinea pig trip”!

The clear waters, dramatic coastal profiles and strong current create a vibrant marine environment, with porpoises often breaking the surface close to the kayak. Along the way, you'll pass small beaches, cliffs, forests and historic coastal landscapes, which make each trip unique. Gamborg Fjord Gamborg Fjord offers calm, sheltered waters that are ideal for enjoying nature in sea kayaking. The fjord contains bays, reed forests and small coves where you can get close to the birdlife with lap-divers, ducks, sea eagles and reed hawks.

Reeboot Nature: Krabbefisker for en dagby Vends Motorik- og Naturskole

The Little Belt is full of nature experiences, tales and crabs. Please contact us directly to make an appointment. Phone 28144003 mail: motorikognatur@gmail.com Go fish with you! The beach crab eats everything and creates an imbalance in the Little Belt There are unusually many beach crabs in the Little Belt. The rise of crabs is due, among other things, to the fact that there are not so many cod in Danish waters. Fewer cod yields more crabs because the cod would otherwise eat the little crabs. When the crabs instead eat loose fish eggs, it leads to even fewer cod. Therefore, it is a good idea to fish and catch crabs. Take them home and eat them instead of putting them back in the sea, the rest we hand over to the local crab fisherman. Read more: Crab Catch - Reboot Nature
