Why take a ferry from Poole to Cherbourg ?

Whether you're travelling solo, with a partner or with the family, a Poole to Cherbourg ferry can be a convenient and enjoyable option for getting to Cherbourg. Here are 3 reasons why we think Poole to Cherbourg ferry is an ideal way to travel.

To enjoy the incredible sea view
Every time we go on vacation on the coast, we are looking for the best view on the sea. You will enjoy a 360° ocean view from the port of Poole to Cherbourg, whether you are having lunch or relaxing in one of the ship's lounges. Everywhere, large windows will give you an extraordinary view of the azure blue sea to enjoy its soothing power.
It's much less boring than on a plane
If we compare the speed, the plane is certainly the fastest way to go from Poole to Cherbourg. The problem is that you are stuck in your seat for several hours. On the other hand, during the Poole Cherbourg crossing on the Condor Ferries or Brittany Ferries ferry, you have total freedom in your activities, to eat, walk, have fun or rest. A flight will never give you so many services during the trip.
Take an unlimited amount of luggage
One piece of luggage is free, all the others must be paid for. This is often the formula used when we travel with other modes of transportation, which very often leads to a significant increase in the bill. However, when you board a Brittany Ferries or Condor Ferries ferry in Poole, you are free to take as much luggage as you like, as long as it is contained in your vehicle. If you are traveling without a car, then you will be restricted in your movements all the way to Cherbourg. However, we recommend that you ask the Brittany Ferries or Condor Ferries crew, as luggage lockers are often available for passengers to store their luggage during the crossing.
