Jaunt to Calais

[dolabriform]

Hi all

We're over in Calais for the weekend, and it's been really easy sorting the passport stamps. For those who don't know, there's now a free bus service that goes from close to the marina to the ferry terminal. It runs every 15 / 20 mins or so from 0800 to 1900 Monday to Saturday. The journey takes about 10 minutes.

See here for info:

As has always been our experience here, the PAF are friendly and helpful. They even asked if we knew there was a free bus service.

They want to get themselves over to Boulogne & do a bit of passport stamping there. Be much more use to yachties.

F.Y.I the free bus is excellent and they do a clockwise and anti clockwise route. The nearest bus stop by the marina, I suggest you cross the road to the bus stop opposite and that way the ferry port is the next stop.

The bus stop nearest, will get you to the ferry port but after 30 minute ride around the streets of Calais.

You can guess which one we got on
