Danish Island List

Revised based on e-mail 8-22-00.

The Danish Island Award DIA

Denmark consist of Jylland and a lot of big and small islands. They can be divided into 6 groups. The 6 groups are:

EU-029 Sjaelland Archipilage
EU-030 Islands in the Baltic Sea
EU-088 Islands in the northern part of Kattegat
EU-125 Islands in the Nort Sea
EU-171 Nordjylland and the islands in Limfjorden
EU-172 Jylland North group

The intention with this list is to register all Danish islands of a certain size after a fixed pattern. Two letters have been chosen, indicating what part of the country, the island belongs to. Three digits gives the island a number inside the part of the country.

The two letters are used in this way:

SJ The islands around Sjælland   
FY The islands around Fyn
JY The islands along the east coast of Jylland
BO The islands around Bornholm
NK The islands in the northern part of Kattegat
NS The islands in the Northsea
NJ Nordjylland and the islands in Limfjorden

The list ist not complete. An example is Ertholmene EU-030. This island group consist of at least four small islands: Christiansø, Frederiksø, Græsholm and Tat. But in the way the list is made, new islands can easily be added.
