P & O operate the Cross Channel ferries route from Dover to Calais,
Norfolk Line operate from Dover to Dunkirk, whilst LD Line operate
from Dover to Boulogne The slightly longer routes from Newhaven to
Dieppe.

The cost of ferries between Dover and Calais and nearby ports remain
relatively good value – return tickets in August can still be had for
well under £100. But if you are thinking of taking one of the longer
ferry crossings expect to pay more.

PO Ferries announces the arrival of 2 of the largest new ferries ever
between Dover & Calais. The Ships are due for delivery.

For example, ferry operator LD Lines has introduced a ‘best-value
cross-Channel early-booking’ offer from £18 each way via its exclusive
Dover-Boulogne route. The offer is valid for a car and two people.

LD Lines is a subsidiary of Louis Dreyfus Armateurs, a major player in
maritime transport with a fleet of over 60 ships operating worldwide.
LD Lines added the popular Dover-Boulogne crossing to their existing
ferry routes in February 2009. This new service operates year round
and there are four crossings each way during the week.

The Norman Spirit operates the route with a crossing time of just
1h45. The Norman Spirit has capacity for 1850 passengers, 700 cars and
110 freight vehicles.

Bolougne is just thirty kilometres from Calais and it’s a much nicer
town to visit for a day trip or indeed to end a motoring holiday in
France. So the Dover Boulogne route is in close competition with the
more numerous Dover Calais ferry fleet.

You can take a ferry from Dover or Folkestone to Calais or Boulogne. Prices vary, but Speed Ferries seem to be the cheapest. With Eurotunnel as well as the ferries, the less time you spend in France, the cheaper the crossing.

“Peages” are toll autoroutes. From Calais to Paris it’s about 10 euros one way. Plus you have to pay for petrol. So travelling to France by car can be quite expensive any way you look at it. You can take non-toll roads (“nationals”) but it will take you longer as you pass through villages/traffic lights, etc. and the speed limits are lower (the limit on peages is 130k/83miles per hour).

Eurostar does specials on occasion which work out to be much cheaper than driving to Paris for one to three passengers. Plus, you are in central Paris and don’t have to worry about parking or having your car vandelised/broken into, which has happened to me a couple of times!
