LD Lines Ferries - Dover Dieppe ferry crossings
Dover Dieppe ferries with LD Lines.
This new service is an all-year round ferry service between Dover and Dieppe.
LD Lines offer 1 crossing per day each way, with an average crossing time of 4
hours.
The Dover Dieppe crossing is operated by the Côte d'Albâtre and the Seven
Sisters, alternating with their duties on the Dover Boulogne route. These modern
ships are designed to carry up to 600 passengers, 250 cars and 55 Lorries. Both
ships were launched in 2006, so enjoy the latest in facilities and technology to
ensure an enjoyable crossing. These superb new ships are capable of speeds of up
to 22 knots (about 25 mph). With ultra-modern stabilizers you can be sure of a
comfortable crossing whatever the weather conditions.
There's plenty to make the 4 hour trip seem more like a cruise than a ferry
crossing, including a magnificent panoramic lounge, as well as the elegant
surroundings of the bar and restaurant. Make sure you find time on the trip for
some shopping in the boutique while you leave the children in the children’s
play-areas.
The ships sail from Dover's Eastern Docks, right next to the end of the A2
and A20, so easy to find and well signposted. If you already have tickets you
just follow the signs to the LD Lines' check-in kiosks. Tickets on arrival can
be purchased in the ticket office on the right as you enter the port area. Dover
is about an hour's drive down the M20/A20 from its junction with the M25.
Dieppe is a very pleasant seaside town, with an elegant promenade and a
bustling town centre presided over by the Chateau perched on the hillside. The
restaurants are well-known for the quality of their seafood, and cater for all
budgets. It's an easy drive south to join up with the Fench autoroute network
near Rouen, with Paris not much more than 2 hours away, and dual carriageways
and motorways waiting to take you throughout France and beyond.
LD Lines has built its reputation on providing value for money without
sacrificing comfort and quality. So why not try them and see just how much you
get for your money?
