The Baltic Sea and Approaches (4th Edition)
This fourth edition, prepared by a team from the Royal Cruising Club, contains extensive revisions. The text and plans have been fully updated, many plans have been redrawn, and new photographs have been added. The section on Finland has been reorganized, and the chapters on the Baltic States and Poland have been significantly improved to reflect recent developments.
The nine countries surrounding the Baltic Sea offer a wide variety of cruising areas, cultures and landscapes. With thousands of harbours and countless anchorages, this guide provides selective but practical information. It supports both the preparation phase - covering route planning, timing, equipment and communication - and the needs of sailors on arrival, with country overviews followed by detailed harbour information.
In regions where detailed cruising guides already exist, such as Germany, Denmark, Sweden and Finland, only selected key harbours are included. In areas with limited available information, including Poland, Kaliningrad, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Russia, many smaller harbours are described in detail.
The book also offers extensive recommendations for further reading and lists more than 200 relevant websites, including sources in each country. Information on internet access in major harbours is provided. From quiet anchorages and scenic canals to lively marinas and historic cities, the Baltic offers a rich cruising experience.
