France By Boat From The Uk And Ireland

The fares below are one-way for adult foot passengers unless otherwise noted. Though standard return fares are usually just twice the one-way fare, fixed-period returns (usually within 5 days) are almost invariably cheaper. Ferries run year-round unless otherwise noted. Bikes are usually free, although you may have to pay up to UK£10 in high season. For a camper/trailer supplement, you will have to add UK£20-140 to the “with car” fare. If more than one price is quoted, the quote in pounds is valid for departures from the UK, etc. A directory of ferries in this region can be found at www.seaview.co.uk/ferries.html.
