Ferry Port Overview

Cherbourg Ferry port is situated in the north of the Cotentin Peninsula in the North West France. Cherbourg Ferry port serves as a gateway to the region of Normandy, to Paris and onwards to Belgium, Holland and Germany.

The town of Cherbourg is the second largest in the Normandy region and has always been an important naval base from the Napoleonic times. It is one of the largest artificial harbours in the world serving as a major commercial, fishing and military port.

Normandy boasts of a spectacular rugged coastline dotted with many beautiful sandy beaches. Although not the prettiest of the towns of Normandy, Cherbourg has an important historic past and a number of attractions like the Fort du Roule from the top of which there is a panoramic view of the city, Cité de la Mer (an Aquarium) , a Renaissance style Ravalet Château and many war memorials commemorating the Second World War.
