IN 2000 another Bridge/Tunnel was constructed linking Denmark with
Sweden (Malmo) which no doubts means the existing ferry between
Helsingor (Denmark) and Helsingborg (Sweden) might soon be history


I used the Helsingør-Helsingborg ferry in the days before the bridge
at Malmo with journeys starting in Sweden. The return journeys were a
nightmare as the ferries were packed with drunk Swedes who were taking
advantage of the cheaper alcohol prices in Denmark. I don't know if
it's still as bad but I recommend welly boots if you take the trip!
