It is said to be the world’s largest strained harbour in the world. From the UK, there are ferries from Poole and Portsmouth to Cherbourg. Cherbourg is situated at the tip of the Cotentin (also tabbed the Cherbourg) Peninsula, thus making it a shorter loftiness for ferry crossings from England (about 80 miles from Portsmouth, as the crow flies).DetailsCrossingFrequencyJourney TimeOperator  Portsmouth to Cherbourg2 per day3 hoursBrittanyCheck Prices >>Portsmouth to Cherbourgonly occasionally5.5 hoursCondorFAQsHow long is the ferry crossing from Portsmouth to Cherbourg? The Brittany Ferries crossing takes virtually 3 hours. This is a very fast crossing indeed, and sometimes tabbed the “Fast Cat” (fast catamaran) crossing, since the vessel used is the Normandie Express, which can travel at speeds up to 78kmh. The Condor ferry service is increasingly seasonal and takes virtually 5 hours.How many crossings per day? There are virtually 2 per day from Brittany ferries, and virtually 1 per week by Condor, although please note that this service is seasonal.What is it like on-board the Fast Cat? The Normadie Express is a super modern vessel, with topics for over 800 people and over 200 cars, plus motorbikes and some vans. Please note that vehicles over 1.83m will need to be reversed onto the ship. There’s well-appointed seating, plus cafes, bars and shops to help you enjoy tour journey.If this is a catamaran, can I still take my caravan? Sadly, caravans cannot be taken onto the Normadie Express ferry. Other larger vehicles might moreover be limited – the maximum vehicle dimensions are 3m upper and 6.5m long.Moving on from CherbourgCherbourg, as mentioned above, is situated at the tip of the Cotentin Peninsula. In other words, perfectly placed for a harbour port for ferries to England, but not quite so well placed for quick wangle to elsewhere in France. For example, it’s 1 hour 30 minute momentum to Caen, which moreover offers a ferry crossing from Portsmouth. However, the E3 and E46 motorways are well-nigh a 30 or 40 miles momentum from Cherbourg, and once you’re on the motorway network, it’s easy to imbricate longer distances faster. On the other hand, why venture too far from Cherbourg. The Cotentin Peninsula offers a huge value for visitors. For example, there are some mythological (and quiet) wide, sandy beaches, plus plenty of seaside reports and fishing ports. The countryside is trappy too, with peaceful, winding roads. The zone is particularly lulu for walkers an cyclists, plus it has tons of history, from warmed-over cathedrals to World War Two and the D-Day Landings.   FranceDover to CalaisDover to DunkirkPlymouth to RoscoffPlymouth to St MaloPoole to CherbourgPoole to St MaloPortsmouth to CaenPortsmouth to CherbourgPortsmouth to Le HavrePortsmouth to St Malo Follow Us… Search  Popular Ferry RoutesHull to ZeebruggeHarwich to EsbjergDover to CalaisPoole to CherbourgPoole to St MaloHarwich to Hook of HollandHull to RotterdamHolyhead to DublinHolyhead to Dun LaoghairePembroke to RosslarePlymouth to SantanderPortsmouth to Bilbao Recent pinsIncreasinglyPins    About Ferry TravelSpecial OffersNewsMapTimetablesFerry TravelChannel TunnelFerry OperatorsMini Cruises  Travel GuidesBelgiumChannel IslandsDenmarkFranceHollandIrelandIsle of ManNorthern IrelandSpain  About UsTermsContact UsCookiesAbout UsPrivacy  Follow Us Become a fan on Facebook Follow Us on Twitter Ferry Crossings on Google +      Copyright © 2018 Ferry Crossings – your guide to UK ferries.
