PORT OF THE YEAR
Have you had a great experience at the port during the year? Is there a port you would particularly like to highlight for its location, service, environment, atmosphere, child-friendliness or something else positive? Then take part in Danske Tursejleres' competition to name the Port of the Year. At the same time, you can enter the competition to win a cool inflatable life jacket. The competition is run by Danish Touring Sailors in collaboration with the Association of Marinas in Denmark (FLID), the Danish Sailing Union, Bådmagasinet and MinBaad.
Danish sailors spend a lot of time in both their own and other ports. Most have visited a harbor that was just an extra good experience, one that resonates for years to come.
Én af vores mange mærkesager er netop udvikling af de danske havne, og vi holder et tæt øje med, hvad der sker rundt omkring. Udover at være et behageligt og positivt bekendtskab for både gæstesejlere og lokale, er det samtidig en stor fordel for resten af byen, når denne har en attraktiv og veldrevet marina. Derfor har mange af de forgange vindere med stolthed brugt den fornemme titel til markedsføring og promovering af det gode havneliv. Årets Havn er en anerkendelse, som forhåbentlig giver flere sejlere lyst til at komme på besøg.
Afstemningen løber indtil 31. oktober 2025.
The jury will then select a winner, which will be announced at FLID's Port Fair in November.
It is possible to win the honorable titles multiple times if the participants and the jury feel that the port in question has earned it.
Der åbnes for afstemningen d. 4/6-25.
How to choose Port of the Year
- All sailors throughout Denmark can vote - regardless of whether you are a member of Danske Tursejlere or not. There will be a draw for 5 inflatable life jackets with your name on it among the submitted answers.
- You can only vote once.
- The jury consists of representatives from Danske Tursejlere, FLID, Dansk Sejlunion, Bådmagasinet and MinBaad.
- The jury will select the Port of the Year from the 5 ports that received the most votes in the preliminary vote.
- In addition, the jury selects the "SHOULDERCLAP OF THE YEAR", which is an award given to a port that did not make the top 5 in the voting, but still deserves a pat on the back. The jury's choice is based on the comments provided by the participants when they cast their votes.
- Præmier: Årets Havn: 10.000 kr. Årets Skulderklap: 10.000 kr.
