Route guide

Plan your ferry from Roscoff to Plymouth

The Roscoff to Plymouth crossing links Roscoff in France with Plymouth in the United Kingdom.

For a departure from Roscoff, start by locating the ferry terminal and checking how to reach the correct boarding point. Roscoff’s ferry terminal is at Port de Bloscon on Brittany’s north coast. It is a convenient ferry point for western Brittany and links onward towards Morlaix, Brest, Quimper and the Loire.

On the other side of the crossing, Plymouth is your arrival port. Central Plymouth is walkable, with rail and buses useful for Devon and Cornwall and road access convenient for wider South West touring.

Compare the Roscoff departure and Plymouth arrival on the same dated itinerary. Sailing times and intermediate calls can differ between directions, so use the Roscoff to Plymouth result when planning your trip rather than assuming the outward timetable applies in reverse.

Check the total cost for everyone travelling, including any vehicle, reserved seat, cabin or other option offered. A later arrival in Plymouth may affect your next connection or accommodation, so compare the whole journey as well as the fare.
