Jutland Peninsula (also known as Jutland) is located on the territories of Germany and Denmark. It is "growing out" of Europe near Hamburg and is surrounded by the Baltic and North Seas. The Vendsyssel summit which belongs to Denmark is considered to be an island, as it is separated from proper Jutland by a strait. The peninsula covers the area of 40 000 square kilometers. The coasts of Jutland are characteristic for the beautiful underwater tunnels called föhrds (although the name is similar to fiords, this type of coast has not much in common with the Norwegian fiords).
