Roll-on/roll-off ramps, a rail-ferry yard and the jack-up vessels of the offshore-wind industry set the scene at Mukran Port, the commercial facility that the code DE SAS effectively designates rather than the small Sassnitz town harbour. Located on the eastern shore of Rügen island in the Baltic, Mukran is a deep-water multipurpose port run by Fährhafen Sassnitz GmbH, spread over some 430 hectares of ferry, rail, multipurpose and offshore terminals. The Bornholmslinjen ferry links Rügen with the Danish island of Bornholm, alongside RoRo traffic, heavy-lift and project cargo and the "Baltic Port Rail Mukran" rail operation. The port is a key installation and service base for German Baltic offshore wind farms and has hosted an LNG import terminal since 2024. The historic town harbour now mainly serves fishing, excursion vessels and leisure craft. There is no conventional container line service; shippers needing boxes route via Rostock, while Trelleborg offers an alternative for ferry traffic.
