Travelling can’t often be described as being relaxing, but when you sail to your holiday destination by ferry you can expect fresh air, plenty of space, and lots of entertainment options, plus those unrivalled sea views that create a ferry feeling our passengers just love!
Whether you have travelled by ferry before, or are considering doing so for the first time, you will find that there are lots of reasons why this is a great transport option for those looking for a stress-free and enjoyable trip.
1. Spend time on deck
There’s nothing like sea views and sunshine to get you into the holiday spirit, and ferry travel gives you the chance to enjoy both of these things during your journey. All you need to do is head onto the outside deck during your crossing where you can watch the waves roll by.
There are lots of health benefits associated with travelling by ferry, and access to sea air is just one of them. Due to being free from pollution and chemicals, breathing in sea air can do great things for the respiratory system, and it can make you feel more alert too.
Research also shows that those with a view of the sea report that they feel healthier than those living 30 miles away from the coast, so spend time watching the waves when you cross with us and you might find yourself feeling extra energised and rejuvenated when you reach your destination.
2. Stretch your legs
It’s very difficult to relax when you don’t have space to move around, so being able to stretch your legs while you’re travelling by ferry is a real luxury. Of course, there are plenty of comfy seating options if you need to rest, but you don’t need to feel like you are confined to your seat.
If you’d like to combine stretching your legs with a bit of retail therapy, head to our onboard shop where you can pick up items from some of your favourite brands. Here, you will find everything from perfume and sunglasses to confectionary and alcohol, so you’re sure to be able to treat yourself during your walk around the displays.
3. Make your own schedule
One of the best ways to get that ferry feeling is to enjoy the fact that you can make your own schedule, or avoid having one at all! You get to decide what to do and when to do it during your crossing, so you can relax and unwind without sticking to a timetable.
Instead of having set meal times, head to one of our onboard restaurants whenever you feel peckish and choose one of the tasty food options that we have on offer. We serve a whole range of food to suit everyone, and there are plenty of healthy snacks and meals available if you fancy something that is both nutritious and delicious.
Fancy sleeping your way across the North Sea? You won’t struggle to drift off in a comfortable cabin. So whether you want to settle down as soon as you set sail, or head to bed after enjoying some evening entertainment, you’re guaranteed to be snoozing in no time.
There are lots of different ways to get that ferry feeling when you travel with us, and we love making the journey to your destination feel like the start of your holiday. Feel inspired to travel by ferry? Book your crossing and find your own ferry feeling today!
