Baltic Sea Transport

The Baltic Sea region is one of the best-connected regions in Europe. All common modes of transport
“bring” holidaymakers to the Baltic Sea. The A 1 and A 7 motorways towards Schleswig-Holstein and Denmark, the so-called “Baltic Sea Motorway” A 20, running parallel to the Baltic coast in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, the A 19 motorway to Rostock and the A 11 towards Szczecin, as well as the A 14 to Wismar offer fast routes to the beach. A motorway from Szczecin to Gdańsk
is currently being built in Poland. As an extension of rail connections to the Baltic Sea’s major cities, Kiel, Lübeck/Travemünde, Puttgarden on Fehmarn, Rostock, Sassnitz/Mukran on Rügen, Świnoujście (Swinemünde), Kołobrzeg (Kolberg) and Gdynia (Gdingen) also offer ferry connections to the opposite coasts of Sweden and Denmark.
Numerous ports are starting points for regular ship services or simply for sightseeing trips in the coastal waters. For guests travelling from farther afield in particular, the airports and airfields in the hinterland along the entire coast are a convenient option. Many airports also offer sightseeing flights over the Baltic Sea and nearby coastal areas.
With our “route guidance system,” we want to make your personal journey to the Baltic coast easier.

Baltic Sea Airports

Holidaymakers will find numerous airports and airfields on the Baltic Sea for arrivals and departures. Visitors to the Baltic Sea can book sightseeing flights, hot-air balloon rides, tandem skydives, glider flights, or sightseeing tours by glider.

Baltic Sea Boat Trips

Excursion and passenger-boat services have a long tradition on the Baltic Sea. They connect holiday resorts and offer trips on rivers, lagoons and coastal inlets, as well as out onto the Baltic.

Ferry Services on the Baltic Sea

Ferry traffic on the Baltic Sea has traditionally been very important. Ferry services account for a substantial share of transport in the Baltic Sea region and are the fastest and most enjoyable way for many holidaymakers from central Europe to travel across the Baltic Sea to Scandinavia.

Train Travel on the Baltic Sea

The Baltic Sea coast is easy for holidaymakers to reach by train. Some historic railways, such as the Molli in Mecklenburg and the Rasender Roland on Rügen, offer unusual opportunities for day trips.
