Politician refuses to send parking attendants to the beach

Camping site owner Henrik Lund reported illegal camping by ten motorhomes, three tents, and several cars at Pøls Rev beach in South Als. The municipality of Sønderborg will not allocate resources to send parking attendants to beaches, said Kirsten Bachmann, chair of the city development, rural districts, and infrastructure committee. Instead, she proposes clarifying where camping is allowed and engaging in dialogue with camping site owners.

Danish campsite owner calls for action against illegal beach camping

Henrik Lund, owner of Lysabildskov Camping on the island of Als, reported a surge in illegal motorhome parking on beaches. During the first weekend of May, he counted 10 motorhomes, three tents, and several cars at Pøls Rev beach, more than the number of guests at his campsite. Danish law prohibits overnight camping in motorhomes on beaches, allowing only short stops. The Sønderborg municipality is considering restrictions but has not yet implemented specific measures.

Why You Should Never Hand Over Your Passport at a Hotel or Campsite

Experts warn that a photocopy of your passport left at a hotel or campsite can be used by fraudsters to take out loans or subscriptions. Hotels are required to register guests, but noting name, address, and stay dates is sufficient—a full copy is unnecessary. It is recommended to prepare a redacted copy in advance or offer an alternative, such as a credit card as a guarantee.
