Where does the bus to the Gotland ferry leave from?
Boat bus stops, tickets and the commuter train alternative.
Short answer
The boat bus to the Gotland ferry in Nynäshamn leaves from Stockholm C (the Cityterminalen) and from Gullmarsplan, stand G, according to Destination Gotland. In Nynäshamn the bus stops in direct connection to the ferry. Departure times are coordinated with the ferry's arrival and departure, and a bus ticket can be added when you book the ferry.
Why
- Destination Gotland lists Stockholm C (Cityterminal) and Gullmarsplan (stand G) as the Stockholm stops for the boat bus towards Nynäshamn.
- Destination Gotland says the transfer bus stops directly connected to the ferry at Nynäshamn and Oskarshamn, with departures timed to the ferry's arrival and departure.
- Destination Gotland says the SL commuter train station in Nynäshamn is a few hundred metres from the ferry terminal.
Details
The Swedish page names the route as Uppsala-Arlanda-Stockholm C-Nynäshamn. Bus tickets can be bought when you book the ferry or added later under your bookings. Destination Gotland's page also notes temporary stop changes, for example roadworks at Gullmarsplan, so check it before you travel. For the full ferry guide, see ferry to Gotland, and for places to stay, see where to stay on Gotland and when to book.
Tip
If you take the SL commuter train instead, plan to arrive in Nynäshamn at least one hour before the ferry departs, because the ferry does not wait for delayed trains.
What may differ
Travelling by car: Destination Gotland describes the transfer bus as the way to the terminal for those not travelling by car, and drivers use the vehicle check-in at Fiskargränd 1 in Nynäshamn.
Common misconception
The SL commuter train timetable is coordinated with the Gotland ferry.
What actually happens
Destination Gotland says SL timetables are not coordinated with ferry times and that the ferry's departure times are fixed, so train delays are not accommodated.
