Route guide

A major Poland–Sweden ferry corridor

Gdynia–Karlskrona is one of the Baltic Sea’s established passenger and freight links. Stena Line has operated the route since 1995 and currently uses three ships, including the modern E-Flexers Stena Estelle and Stena Ebba.

The timetable includes both day and overnight patterns. Crossing length varies by departure, so travellers should compare not only the headline sailing time but also arrival time, cabin needs and onward road plans.

Gdynia gives easy access to the Tricity area around Gdańsk and Sopot, while Karlskrona is well positioned for southern Sweden.

For Gdynia to Karlskrona, the advertised crossing time is only one part of the journey. Allow for port access, check-in, boarding and disembarkation when deciding which departure best fits the day.

Look beyond the headline fare when comparing Gdynia to Karlskrona. Departure time, ticket flexibility and the transfer after arrival can make a different sailing more convenient overall.
