Tickets & Prices
Mainland Vehicle Fares
Prices vary...
By day of scheduled sailing, generally fares are lower for travelling midweek or Saturday or Sunday out of peak periods.
By time of scheduled sailing, generally the fares become lower the later in the day that you travel on the ferry i.e. after 09:55, 13:00 or 20:45 hours. At these times up to three additional passengers travel free on many of the fares.
For length of stay away - a stay away of up to 4 nights is generally cheaper than a longer stay, for example.
A quote can be obtained by visiting our online booking system and selecting the ferry crossing and party details for your trip (there is no need to register) or by calling us on 0871 376 1000 (calls cost 7p per minute plus network extras).
