Two routes to France
We are the only ferry operator with 2 routes to France from Dover, meaning you can choose the route which best suits your plans and destination. What’s more you can return to the UK from either port (no matter which you sailed out on).
Although the ports are only 30 miles apart you might find Dunkirk is more convenient if you are travelling to northern and eastern Europe or northern France, while Calais is a better choice if you are heading south or west. There are up to 22 daily sailings between Dover and Dunkirk and 30 between Dover and Calais, so you’re sure to find a crossing at a time that suits you. Ships on both routes have great facilities to entertain everyone during the short crossing including cafes, restaurants, a bar, shop and a kids’ play area.
Terms and Conditions
Dover- France offer is valid on Economy bookings for cars plus up to 9 passengers only. Subject to availability. T&Cs & credit card charges apply. £20 supplement applies to bookings made on the day of travel. £10 amendment fees apply each way.
Sail away
Ferry travel is ideal, stress-free way to reach the continent from the UK. The fantastic onboard facilities include bars, restaurants and a shop where you can save up to 30% on perfume, cosmetics, alcohol and more. There's also plenty for kids, including a children's play area and children’s menus in our restaurants. The views of Dover's famous White Cliffs from the deck are unbeatable, too.
