Getting to the port

The ferry terminal is in the Überseehafen, north-east of the city centre. From Berlin you take the A19, from Hamburg the A20 and then the A19 north. Near Rostock, follow the signs for Überseehafen or Fährterminal, not for the city centre.

Don’t go to Warnemünde. That is where the cruise ships dock, on the other side of the river. The ferries to Trelleborg don’t leave from there.

In the holidays it can get busy at the port entrance, so allow some extra time.

Check-in

Be there at least 60 to 90 minutes before departure. With a motorhome, caravan, trailer or pet, or in summer, come a bit earlier. Large vehicles usually board first or last.

The exact check-in time differs per company and ticket. If your booking says something else, go by your booking.

• Restaurant, usually open Monday to Friday from 7:00 to 14:00
