If you are starting or ending a cruise in Copenhagen you are likely to begin or end your journey at this out-of-the-way Freeport Terminal facility. Ships making a port of call will most likely dock at the touristy Langelinie Pier within easy walking distance of the famous Little Mermaid Statue.
The Freeport Terminal is in a highly developed commercial and industrial area. It is not within walking distance from the major attractions of Copenhagen, so transportation is required. Most will simply take a taxi to and from this port. The closest train station is the Nordhavn stop on the S-Tog. From here you must navigate quite a distance, over a mile, to reach the cruise ship dock.
The dock itself is quite sparse. There are few amenities. It's only a location for immediately boarding your ship on the outbound leg, or to take transportation into the city at the end of your cruise.
Name of the Cruise Ship if one is in 'Port'.: Norwegian Sun
