Those attractions are most certainty wort a visit, but now that Denmark is such a small country you can visit much more than Copenhagen. Aarhus and Odense are big cities as well, Aarhus is the biggest city in Jutland and Odense is the biggest city on Funen. Aarhus has tourist attractions as well, they have for example the famous art museum Aros known for the colored roof top and they have The Old Town Museum in Danish Den Gamle By, which is a good place to visit in the summer time.

Odense does not have a beach in walking distance, but there are a lot of beaches on Funen. Nonetheless there are a lot to experience anyway. You can visit the house of Hans Christian Andersen or go on a river cruise on Odense Å. But there are other things to do in smaller cities, in August there is for example outdoor activities organized by Outdoor Sydfyn.
