The St Malo to Poole crossing links St Malo in France with Poole in the United Kingdom. This route is part of the English Channel / Brittany ferry network.
For a departure from St Malo, start by locating the ferry terminal and checking how to reach the correct boarding point. St Malo’s ferry terminal gives direct access to northern Brittany. The historic walled city is nearby, while roads lead south toward Rennes and west along the Breton coast.
On the other side of the crossing, Poole is your arrival port. Poole’s quay and old town are walkable, while rail, buses and road links make Bournemouth, Purbeck and the wider Dorset coast easy to combine.
Compare the St Malo departure and Poole arrival on the same dated itinerary. Sailing times and intermediate calls can differ between directions, so use the St Malo to Poole 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 Poole may affect your next connection or accommodation, so compare the whole journey as well as the fare.
