Dunkirk to Dover
Our port in Dunkirk is the ideal starting point for a trip to the UK, with 24 daily crossings. Dunkirk’s location, in the north-east of France, makes it easily accessible from Germany, Holland, Belgium and further afield, such as eastern Europe or Scandinavia.
Each crossing takes just 2 hours, so you can get straight back on the road and continue to your destination, perhaps after grabbing a bite to eat or a coffee.
