Situated on the southeast coast of Sweden, Karlshamn Port borders the Baltic Sea and is the main port in the region. Surrounded by forest and looking out over the Blekinge archipelago, the port is aesthetically one of the most unique and alluring in the world, attracting a growing amount of visitors each year. A naturally beautiful town, Karlshamn aims to remain green both physically and environmentally, with the area keen to maintain the admirably clean environment. Sport also plays a large part in the lifestyle of the residents; football, hockey and sailing clubs all encourage new members to participate on a regular basis. The harbour area is commonly used to transport tonnes of cargo, making it the sixth busiest port in Sweden in regards to commercial use. The ferry routes for the port span a vast area, covering Klaipeda in Lithaunia, St. Petersburg in Russia and its most frequent crossing to Kiel in Germany. The port is only accessible via road transport, therefore only cars and taxis are the two viable options. There is a taxi rank waiting outside of the train station, which is located fairly close to the port, therefore a fare for the ride shouldn’t cost too much. The port opens relatively late, not allowing passengers to check in until 3pm, and sailings generally aren’t scheduled until the evening.
The Port of Klaipeda is the northernmost ice-free port on the eastern coast bordering the Baltic Sea, representing Lithuania as its biggest and busiest port. More than 800 economic agents are directly involved in the operations of Klaipeda Port, and the port itself is a member of five international organisations that dictate important movements in the world of transportation. The port is regarded as one of the primary bases to connect Lithuania with the rest of Eastern Europe, especially the Baltic countries. The World Bank is currently sponsoring movements at the port, with the objectives to prevent spills, improving waste reception facilities and monitoring environmental conditions. The port has recently been making strides in the tourism industry after renovations have transformed it into an attractive seaside city. Over the past decade, cruise shipping has soared in popularity at the marina, with the cruise vessel terminal sitting right in the heart of the city. Numerous services are available to passengers at the port: taxi ranks, an internet café, souvenir shops, bars and restaurants are typically very busy at all times. An additional terminal was added in 2014 in an attempt to improve the city’s competitiveness in cruise shipping and to develop the exponential growth of its tourism industry. The ferry routes coming out of the port are to Kiel in Germany and to Karlshamn in Sweden, both of them relatively long crossings. Facilities on board the vessels are of high quality offering excellent service to passengers.
