What’s On The Ferry?

When you travel to Europe by ferry your holiday starts as soon as you step on board, and the facilities that are available on the ferry are ideal for ensuring that your trip is fun, relaxed, and completely stress-free!

Whether you want to enjoy some delicious snacks or refreshments, get your children involved in the kid’s entertainment, or simply escape the crowds, sit back and watch the sea roll by in our Club Lounge, you’ll find plenty on the ferry to keep you occupied.

Our Food Market has a wide variety of grab and go style hot meals and breakfast options, and our Family Lounge serves hot pizzas, continental breakfast options, and daytime sandwiches, salads and snacks. Why not upgrade to the Club Lounge when you get on our ferries to France so you can get unlimited hot meals and drinks, and relax in our comfy sun loungers in style with a glass of prosecco?
