Sustainability at Sønderballe Strand Camping
certified with the EU Ecolabel
We are proud to say that we are officially certified with the EU Ecolabel
Even as the first accommodation place in the Region of Southern Denmark
A campsite with an EU Ecolabel must meet a number of mandatory requirements regarding energy and water consumption, as well as waste management.
In addition, the campsite must also achieve a certain number of points in a range of optional areas.
Down below is a link where you can see some of the demands, that campsites must live up to.
At Sønderballe Strand Camping, we offer a unique camping experience where nature is the focus, allowing you to enjoy a relaxing holiday with your loved ones. Our campsite is surrounded by forests, rolling fields, and the wonderful beach, inviting both relaxation and activities.
What makes us special? At Sønderballe Strand Camping, we are deeply committed to protecting our nature and promoting biodiversity. We have designated areas as “Wild by Choice,” where we create habitats for wild plants and small animals. Through our initiatives, we support a healthy ecosystem so that future generations can also enjoy the beauty that surrounds us.
Environment and climate are not just buzzwords for us; they are part of our DNA. We practice waste sorting throughout the premises to ensure that our waste is recycled and does not unnecessarily burden the environment. Additionally, we only use green cleaning products so we can keep our facilities clean and inviting without harming nature. We strive to minimize the use of pesticides in our gardening so that flora and fauna can thrive alongside our guests.
We do what we can to take care of our planet. We have participated in several projects focused on sustainability and a green footprint. Among other things, we have had a report prepared on our CO2 footprint, and we are constantly aware of what we can do to improve.
We believe that “no one can do everything, but everyone can do something, and together we can do it all.” That’s why we invite our guests to be a part of our sustainable journey. Together, we can take small but meaningful steps towards a greener future.
It doesn’t stop here. Sustainability will always be in focus. It’s about constantly evolving and setting new goals. And of course, achieving them.
If you have advice, input, or good ideas for us, please don’t hesitate to let us know

The waste must be sorted
We must sort our household-like waste into these waste types: food, paper, cardboard, glass, metal, plastic, food and drink cartons, and residual waste. Some of the factions can come in the same bucket. Look carefully for the pictograms. And if you are in doubt, please ask.
Textiles, hazardous waste and bulky waste must still be handed in at the recycling site.
We are doing our best to make the sorting as easy as possible for us all.

1. It is good for our climate
