Normandy
The picturesque region of France is located only less than two hours from Paris. That is why Normandy is a favorite location for the rest of local residents. Cozy old cities, clean beaches and luxurious hotels, rural scenery and endless sea smoothness also attract tourists from all over the world.
Ferries: high-level service and scheduled flights
The region in northwestern France is washed by the widely known Channel, and the Seine flows through the territory of Normandy - one of the largest rivers in the entire state. This leads to the prevalence of water transport. Ferries run daily, offering passengers a service at a high level, including comfortable seats, entertainment for adults and children, cafes, as well as the opportunity to enjoy stunning landscapes and the vast Atlantic Ocean.
The availability of scheduled flights in both directions makes it easy to choose the most suitable crossing by booking a ticket online. In addition, the ferry is an opportunity to travel in your own car and not worry about restrictions on the weight of your luggage.
