Many people ask ‘how long is the ferry from Dover to Calais’ and are delighted when we tell them it takes only 90 minutes. It’s our fastest crossing and it gives you more time to explore Europe at your leisure.

There’s also plenty to keep everyone entertained as you sail, visit the onboard shop, with everything from confectionery to perfumes and souvenirs.

Kids will love the Pirates’ Island play area, giving families a chance to relax and enjoy a bite to eat while they play. For a VIP experience, book our exclusive Premium Lounge and enjoy complimentary drinks, fruit and sweet treats while you sail.

The Dover to France ferry prices can differ depending on what ticket type you choose to buy. Our Economy tickets mean you can travel on the sailing before or after your booked crossing time.

For more flexibility, book a Flexi ticket which allows you to travel up to 72 hours either side of your original booking, subject to availability and amend without fees. Regular travellers should book Multi-Trip tickets for savings on your crossings over the course of the year.

We also have seasonal special offers during the year, so be sure to keep checking the offers section of the website or sign up to our e-newsletter.

We have proudly partnered with Nectar to provide even more value to you, our customer.

You can collect Nectar points on all of our ferry crossings and short breaks out of the UK when you book online, and don’t forget to keep an eye out for future boost offers where you can earn even more points when you travel with DFDS.
