Aalborg Bugt

Aalborg Bugt lies along Jutland's eastern coast, between Djursland and the shallows near Læsø. Its sandy seabed includes long, shallow ridges. The nearby Limfjord connects the bay with Aalborg, whose position on the waterway made it an important harbour in the Middle Ages. By the seventeenth century, the port linked the town with the Kattegat, Norway and the countryside around the fjord.
