- It is known for its very fine white sand.
- The area around Dueodde was
originally a large sandy area, but in the eighteenth century, it was
planted with pines, as well as Ammophila and Leymus grasses to reduce sand drift.
- Today, Dueodde is a protected area.
- The sand at Dueodde moves easily
with the wind to form dunes.
- The vast dune area and associated sandy
beach start at Haslemere extending some 30 kilometres (19 mi) almost
without interruption.
- Apart from the beach, the only other noteworthy feature is the Dueodde Lighthouse on the southern tip.
- It is the tallest on the island. Built in 1962, it offers a panoramic view of the surroundings.
