FerryFacts - North Sea & Scandinavia
Ferries from the UK to Holland and Denmark including:
- Latest offers on DFDS Newcastle - Amsterdam
- DFDS sailings from Harwich to Esbjerg
- Stena Line crossings Harwich - Hook of Holland
- We've included DFDS Denmark to Norway (Copenhagen - Oslo) too.
There are several routes that bring you in style to northern Europe. As most of these crossings take over 6 hours, comfort is extremely important and many of the ferries on these routes are really small luxury cruise ships, with excellent restaurants, entertainment for children and adults, comfortable lounges and cabins for the overnight crossings.
DFDS / Norfolk Line Harwich - Esbjerg click here >>
DFDS sail overnight every other day from Harwich to Esbjerg on the west coast of Denmark. The journey takes just under 19 hours and is a wonderful leisurely way to begin a holiday or to take a mini-cruise. Cabins are spacious and the restaurants are excellent, particularly the all-you-can-eat buffet.
- dep. Harwich at 17.45 and arr. Esbjerg at 13.00 the following day
- dep. Esbjerg at 19.45 and arr. Harwich at 12.00 the following day
Sailings are alternate days from each port - see the DFDS website for dates
