If you are travelling to France from Britain, you will have to cross the sea! The short stretch of water known to Britons as the English Channel, and to the French as "La Manche" (literally : the sleeve), will unfortunately add considerably to your holiday budget, especially if you are planning more than a day trip.

Booking in advance can provide considerable savings, so it is wise to plan your trip well beforehand.

Here are some links to the main shipping companies that provide cross-channel services:

	Services from Dover and Portsmouth to the north of France
	Services from Plymouth, Poole and Portsmouth to Britanny
	French operator of ferries between Dover and Calais
	High speed car ferries to France, operating the fastest sea crossings on the Dover - Calais & Newhaven - Dieppe cross Channel routes
	Services between Dover and Dunkerque
	Cross-channel train services between Newhaven and Calais
