Ferry Links

 

Ferry prices can be very expensive. Make sure you are getting the best available fare.

Seems to be a price war on some routes at the moment so well worth shopping around or be flexible about travel dates. 

Try to travel midweek on daytime sailings for the western channel.

For Dover/Calais cheapest fares are during the night.
