Timetable by operator
If you only want one operator’s sailings, the filtered timetables are on their own pages.

Stena Line
Several sailings a day, with restaurants, shops and cabins on selected departures.
How to read the timetable
Times shown are departure and arrival times in local time. Germany and Sweden share the same time zone, so no conversion is needed.
The number of sailings varies by season and day of the week. Summer months and weekends usually carry more departures than winter. Overnight crossings normally take longer, because they are scheduled around an early morning arrival rather than the shortest possible time at sea.
On top of the sailing time, allow at least 60 to 90 minutes for check-in, and longer with a motorhome or trailer.
