Port of Karlshamn
Port and Check in information
From April 2023, in addition to the port of Trelleborg, the southern Swedish port of Karlshamn will also be integrated into the TT-Line timetable. The port of Karlshamn in the southeastern province of Blekinge is one of Sweden's largest ports and is particularly well situated for east-west traffic.
From Karlshamn, a connection is offered to and from Klaipėda. The route between Trelleborg and Klaipėda remains, so Karlshamn - Klaipėda is offered in addition.
