Carry any certification or documentation your dog needs, since you could be asked to show it at boarding or partway through the crossing.

Located in the west of Latvia, the city of Liepaja lies on the Baltic Sea coast and is known in Latvia as "the city where the wind is born". This is in reference to the fact that the city always seems to be subject to an almost constant sea breeze. The city is located around 200 km from Riga, 110 km from Klaipeda, 115 km from Ventspils and 100 km from Saldus. The city has a well established cultural, artistic and sporting heritage and the summers in the city are often filled with festivals. This usually begins with the "Summer Sound" beach party and the festival of speed, "Rally Kurzeme", where many thousands of visitors attend. Events in the city do not stop in the winter as the city is host to many exhibitions, expositions, concerts and other creative activities. Perhaps the jewel in the crown of the city are the internationally recognised performances of the Liepaja Theatre and the Liepaja Symphony Orchestra.
From the city's port a ferry can be taken to Travemunde.
The German city of Lubeck is well known for its many Gothic buildings and for its tasty marzipan. Perhaps the most popular tourist attraction in the city is the 15th century Holstentor gateway, which has a truly fairytale appearance with its two cylindrical towers. A charming medieval city lies behind this where visitors will find many other historic buildings which has resulted in the city being declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the 1980's. In fact, most of the city's most popular attractions are to be found in the Old Town area, known as Altstadt.
Nearby, the city's large ferry port lies on the shores of the Baltic Sea, within the suburb of Travemunde, where you will also find several pleasant sandy beaches and have a true feel of seaside tourism. Around Lubeck and its many public squares you will find a number of historical attractions and notable landmarks. Of particular interest is the 13th century Town Hall (Rathaus), the beautiful 12th century Dom (Lubeck Cathedral), the beautiful palatial architecture of Rantzau Castle (Schloss Rantzau), and the Heiligen Geist Hospital, the oldest hospital in Germany, which dates back to 1227.
