We don’t run a live timetable here, sailing times change by season and Brittany Ferries’ own booking system is always the accurate source. What we can tell you is how each route’s schedule generally works, so you know what to expect before you go and check dates.
For exact sailing times and availability: use Brittany Ferries’ own booking search for France and Spain, or Condor Ferries for the Channel Islands. Both show real-time sailings for your actual dates, which nothing on a third-party site can match.
How each route’s schedule works
Caen
Daily, both day and night sailings. The most frequent route, and the first to sell out on popular dates.
Cherbourg
Regular sailings, day and overnight. Tends to have more late availability than Caen.
Saint-Malo
Day and overnight sailings, frequency varies more by season than the Normandy routes.
Booking tips
Book Caen and school-holiday night sailings early, they sell out first.
A flexible ticket costs a little more but lets you rebook if plans change, worth it if anything about your trip is uncertain.
If your first-choice route is full, check the nearest alternative before assuming you can’t travel on your dates, see our routes overview.
