Route guide

Plan your ferry from Malmö to Travemünde

The Malmö to Travemünde crossing links Malmö in Sweden with Travemünde in Germany.

For a departure from Malmö, start by locating the ferry terminal and checking how to reach the correct boarding point. Finnlines uses Norra Hamnen in Malmö, north of the city centre.

On the other side of the crossing, Travemünde is your arrival port. Travemünde’s resort centre is compact, but Skandinavienkai requires a separate bus, taxi or vehicle transfer and Lübeck lies further inland.

Compare the Malmö departure and Travemünde arrival on the same dated itinerary. Sailing times and intermediate calls can differ between directions, so use the Malmö to Travemünde result when planning your trip rather than assuming the outward timetable applies in reverse.

Check the total cost for everyone travelling, including any vehicle, reserved seat, cabin or other option offered. A later arrival in Travemünde may affect your next connection or accommodation, so compare the whole journey as well as the fare.

Before departure

Prepare for check-in at Malmö

The Malmö to Travemünde journey crosses between Sweden and Germany. Check the current entry and travel-document requirements for your nationality and itinerary, together with the operator’s boarding instructions.

Your departure terminal

Use the terminal named on the Malmö booking confirmation. Plan the approach, parking or drop-off before departure; the town centre or railway station may be some distance from check-in.

Passenger and vehicle details

Check names and travel details before you arrive. If taking a vehicle, enter its full dimensions and include trailers, roof loads or rear-mounted equipment where required.

Travel documents

Use current official guidance for documents, entry permissions and any vehicle or pet requirements that apply to your journey. Requirements depend on your circumstances and can change.

After arriving

Continue your journey from Travemünde

Travemünde’s resort centre is compact, but Skandinavienkai requires a separate bus, taxi or vehicle transfer and Lübeck lies further inland.

The beach, lighthouse, Vorderreihe and central riverfront are easy to explore on foot once you are in Travemünde proper.

Use the signed road approach or local bus connections to the terminal; do not assume the beachfront rail station is beside ferry check-in.

For an onward connection from Travemünde, include time to leave the ship and terminal. Check local transport for the actual arrival day, especially if the ferry arrives early in the morning or late at night. A nearby hotel or a later connection may give more flexibility if the crossing is delayed.
