About the Świnoujście – Malmö crossing
One sailing a day, every day, and it runs overnight: Finnlines leaves Świnoujście at 21:30 and berths at Malmö's Norra Hamnen at 06:45, a crossing of 9 hours 15 minutes.
Check-in opens at 19:30 in the terminal building and closes an hour before the ship sails; there is no later option, and the desks take cards only. Finnfellow, Finnpartner and Finntrader rotate on the route, all three carrying freight on the lower decks alongside cars and motorhomes.
Docking at a quarter to seven puts you into Malmö ahead of the morning traffic, with the Öresund bridge and Copenhagen airport around 40 minutes away by road. The return is a daytime crossing, which makes a one-night round trip awkward but a two-night one straightforward.
