The white chalk cliffs of Møn are created from the shells of tiny animals and plants settling on what, 75 million years ago, was a tropical seabed. During the last ice age, the chalk was pushed to the surface by glaciers covering northern Europe. The cliffs are up to 100 meters (328 feet) tall.

[edit] Itineraries

[edit][add listing] Do

Go fossil hunting in the white chalk cliffs. Bring a hammer and chisel or similar, and start chipping in the chalk cliffs. Most common are belemnite fossils but others can also be found.

The local disco closed a few years ago so your only options include: Toldboden on Storegade, where the beer is cheap and the customers average an age of over 50; Café Laika which will do fine if your looking to enjoy a small beer looking over the harbour; and Bryghuset which is a newly open Café and has the advantage of brewing their own beer, hence the name (House of Brew).
