Is there a ferry from Denmark to Poland?
The route to Poland goes through Sweden.
Short answer
As of November 2026 there is no Polferries route to or from a Danish port. Its routes are Świnoujście–Ystad, Świnoujście–Trelleborg, Gdańsk–Nynäshamn and Gdańsk–Karlshamn. Polferries sells a ticket from Copenhagen to Świnoujście via Ystad, which includes a guaranteed crossing of the Öresund Bridge for vehicles. Foot passengers are advised to take the train to Ystad with a change at Malmö Hyllie.
Why
- No direct Polish ferry from a Danish port.
- Copenhagen ticket via Ystad includes the Öresund Bridge for cars.
- Foot passengers take the train via Malmö Hyllie.
Details
With the Copenhagen ticket, drivers must get a number for the bridge from the ferry terminal or the PolenGO office in Copenhagen.
Tip
If you drive, get the bridge number before you leave, as the shipowner does not cover extra costs if you skip it.
What may differ
One Polferries ship had its departures cancelled from 6 November 2026 until further notice, so check your sailing before you travel.
Common misconception
There is a direct ferry from Copenhagen to Poland.
What actually happens
The Copenhagen connection goes over the Öresund Bridge to Ystad, and the ferry to Poland leaves from there.
