Ferries to France
With up to 52 daily sailings between Dover and our French ports of Dunkirk and Calais, you and your group can choose the perfect crossing time to suit. Crossings take just 90 minutes to Calais and 2 hours to Dunkirk, meaning you can get straight back on the road and head to your destination.
