Ferries and cruise ships

Ferries and cruise ships

Several major ferry lines serve the countries around the Baltic Sea, and Stockholm's harbors are centrally located. Stockholm is also a popular cruise destination and every year around 300 cruise liners from the four corners of the earth put in to the city. The approach through the beautiful Stockholm archipelago with its 30,000 islands is an experience in itself.

There are regular services from Finland, Poland and the Baltic states with large passenger and car ferries docking at their own terminals in the Stockholm area. During crossings you can enjoy good food, shopping and entertainment.

In 2008, Stockholm was elected as the Best Destination Experience in the world. Cruise liners mainly put in to Stadsgårdskajen and Frihamnen. The harbors are located close to attractions and sights and have public transport connections.
