Dunkirk has the third-largest harbour in France, after Le Havre and Marseille. One of the most popular ferry routes is to Dover in the United Kingdom, and it takes around 2 hours. One reason for the popularity of this route is because the nearby Belgian town of Adinkerke has lower taxes on certain products like alcohol, so people come here to stock up! Please note that it isn't possible to use the ferry terminal as a foot passenger because the docking terminals do not have passenger bridge.
Dunkirk terminal has a lounge area with facilities for the disabled. It also has The Bottle Stop, which offers a comprehensive range of wines and beers at competitive prices. The shop opens from 9 am-9 pm, Mondays to Fridays, and from 9 am to 6 pm on Saturdays.
When arriving at the terminal, please have your passport and booking reference ready and passengers should check-in no later than one hour and no longer than two hours before departure.
