Small geologial museum with local finds, nice collection of Amber and Quartz
Gedser Water Tower
Is a striking and beautiful building with great views, although access to observation is sketchy at best outside the tourist season (Jul-Aug).
Completed in 1915, designed by Peder Vilhelm Jensen-Klint
Unpretentious pizzeria and restaurant with outdoor seating.
Cozy restaurant in the harbour, call ahead as there are no set opening hours.
A bit run down by the high Danish standards, but perfectly adequate, some rooms accepts pets, just 100 meters from the ferry terminal.
Basic tent camping is available at the Gedser Naturskole. The Naturskole can be found off Sondre Boulevard near the edge of town. The camping is free, but there are only very basic facilities and no showers.
By ferry
The main reason to come to Gedser is the ferry to Rostock in Germany, the most direct route between Copenhagen and Berlin. The crossing takes 1 hour and 45 minutes and is operated by Scandlines.
Gedser is a small and comfortable enough city in which walking is the easiest and most practical means of transportation within the city limits.
