Plan a ferry trip around Nynäshamn

A relaxed Swedish harbour town with archipelago nature, Stockholm connections and two important Baltic ferry networks

Nynäshamn sits on the Baltic coast south of Stockholm, combining a working harbour with a compact centre, rocky shoreline and easy access to the outer Stockholm archipelago.

The waterfront is the natural starting point for a visit, with marina views, cafés and paths that make it easy to combine a ferry journey with a few hours or an overnight stay in town.

Nature is close at hand. Coastal trails, bathing areas and the Lövhagen recreation area provide a quieter contrast to Stockholm, while commuter rail makes the capital straightforward to reach without a car.

For ferry travellers, Nynäshamn is especially useful because it serves both Gotland traffic and an international Baltic route to Latvia, making it a practical gateway for island holidays and longer road trips.

Destination Gotland operates frequent Nynäshamn–Visby sailings, while Stena Line links Nynäshamn with Ventspils. Exact departure times vary by date, so travellers should check the booked terminal and sailing before travel.
