Hoverspeed have introduced Superseacats for the
Dover Calais channel crossing which are monohull high speed craft
with a crossing
time of only 35 minutes. At 100m long they can operate up to 40
knots and can carry up to 700 passengers and 145 vehicles.
We recommend self-drive using the extensive autoroutes or at a
more leisurely pace with overnight stop-overs. Travelling by car
gives you the flexibility of travelling to other areas. The region
is an ideal base for touring the Alpes and Northern Provence and
day trips to Italy are possible.
