To avoid queues at the port entrance, travellers are asked not to arrive more than 3 hours before their scheduled sailing time.

It's essential to stay updated with road traffic information by visiting Traffic News for Kent or Traffic News for Calais. Passengers should bring enough water and refreshments with them.

Passport checks are conducted upon entering the port and before boarding, so have your passports ready to help keep traffic moving smoothly.
