Your port day at a glance
Plan your time ashore in Rønne
Rønne is Bornholm's main cruise and ferry port, with a compact town nearby and island attractions reached by road.
Before going ashore
Before going ashore, confirm the berth or tender point, local time, all-aboard deadline, and the meeting location for any independently booked transport or tour.
Arrival
Usually docks
Town access
Varies by terminal
Can you explore independently?
Choose one local plan or one properly timed regional excursion rather than combining uncertain transport links.

Step off the ship with a plan
Arrival, terminals and getting into town
Confirm the actual berth first—local access can change substantially between terminals.
Where your ship arrives
Confirm the cruise berth and secure-port exit because Rønne's ferry and commercial operations use separate traffic flows.
Getting into town
Rønne's centre and local museums are manageable from the harbour area; Hammershus, Gudhjem, and other Bornholm sights require bus, taxi, or excursion timing.
Port shuttle
Use the port or ship shuttle when offered and confirm its pickup point, destination, frequency, and final return.
Taxi and local transport
Use the marked port pickup area and prebook scarce or accessible vehicles for any plan beyond the immediate waterfront.
