Brittany
Ferries offer a selection of routes that will take you closer to where
you want to be. Sail from Portsmouth, Plymouth, Poole or Cork direct
to Brittany, Normandy or Spain.
As Brittany Ferries has matured since its formation in 1972, so has its significance to tourism in Western France and Northern Spain, with its influence reaching far beyond simply Brittany and Normandy.
Not only is it a ferry operator, but it acts as a tour operator as well, supplying a vast range of self-drive holidays throughout France, Spain and, to a lesser extent, Portugal.
Today, Brittany Ferries operates one of the most modern fleets on the Channel, with 9 ships and over 2,500 employees. It accounts for over 50% of the traffic on the Western Channel, carrying in excess of 2.6 million passengers, 780,000 cars and 170,000 lorries a year.
