Kronstadt is not just about palaces, kings and fountains. It is also about fortresses, heroes and the Baltic Fleet. The most picturesque and interesting way to get there is by boat. From there we can contemplate the forts, lighthouses and boats, and when we reach the land we can explore Kronstadt itself. Are you ready? Let's get started!
P.S. On the way back from Kronstadt to St. Petersburg, it is necessary to approach the ticket office of the berth «Island of Forts» 20–30 minutes before the departure of the Meteor. From the gathering place of the group to the berth, passage is carried out along the dam only as part of a group accompanied by an employee.
So how are we going to get to Kronstadt by boat. We will depart from the Palace Embankment, 36 (the nearest metro station is Admiralteiskaya). Through the central water area of the Neva we are going to enter the Malaya Neva and rush towards the Gulf of Finland. The boat passes by Fort Kronshlot and the Prince Menshikov Battery, and stops in Kronstadt at the «Island of Forts» Park. The boat goes back to St. Petersburg on the same route.
We will go to Kronstadt on a high-speed boat. The hydrofoil motor ship itself is divided into three salons and has a small open space from where you can admire St. Petersburg during the trip. The seating on the meteor is free. Various boats may sail along the route — classic meteors and meteors of the «Voskhod» class.
To buy tickets for a boat tour online is the most convenient way. Just click the «Select date» button, fill in all the required fields and proceed to payment. The ticket will then be sent to your email. You do not need to print it, you can simply show it on your phone screen at the pier ticket office and get a boarding pass.

Sometimes the ship's route passes through the Peterhof State Museum. In this case, the duration of the trip may increase to 1.5 hours.
