Poland cruise ports

Poland's coast faces the Baltic, with port cities and seaside areas that can form different kinds of shore visit. A call marketed with a familiar city name may still involve a transfer from the actual berth. Begin with the arrival information and use it to compare walking, public transport and organised options. Plan from your actual berth without assuming that every ship has the same arrangements or transfer options. Choose an area that fits the available time, confirm any connections you need, and leave room for the journey back to the cruise terminal or landing point.

Getting into town

A walkable port isn't necessarily step-free. At tender ports, the walk starts at the landing. A fare may cover only part of the journey, so check the guide for the full route.

How to read these comparisons

We only compare shuttles and public transport where walking isn't a clear yes. A bus or shuttle may cover only part of the way, or go somewhere else entirely, so check the guide for the route and what the ticket covers. Free shuttles come first. Fares are only put in order when the tickets are the same kind.

Not recorded: we haven't checked this yet, though the guide may say more. None: the guide records no such service. Not applicable: the comparison doesn't fit, either because the guide covers a route or several places, or because you can walk and a shuttle doesn't matter. Unknown fare: there's a service, but we don't have its price. Service unknown: we haven't confirmed the shuttle runs.

Times and distances run from the berth or landing to the landmark named in each guide. That isn't always the city on your itinerary. On the walking page, realistic walks come first, then conditional ones, then ports where walking isn't practical. Within each group, the shortest walks come first.
