BOOK NOW FOR THE BEST SUMMER FARES TO FRANCE
Travel by car to France with SeaFrance from just £5 per person each way

Grab a bargain by booking your summer travel to France now! SeaFrance Dover-Calais Ferries is still offering high season travel at off-peak times from just £25 each way for a car and up to five passengers. This means families could pay as little as £5 per person each way to take their summer holiday in France. Even at peak times and dates, fares are still terrific value from only £49 each way for a car and up to five passengers - just under £10 per person each way for a full car!

With a potential saving of hundreds of pounds on the price of a ticket bought on the day of travel in high summer, savvy families are likely to get the very best prices if they book their SeaFrance summer ferry crossings now. As cheaper fares sell out, ferry prices increase in a similar way to the low-fares airline pricing structure, meaning the later holidaymakers leave their booking, the more likely they are to pay a higher fare.

With such low fares available to those booking early, a holiday abroad could be back on the cards for British holidaymakers currently ruling out an overseas holiday in this recession-hit year. The euro exchange rate may have fallen for the moment, but it is still perfectly possible to eat out like a prince for a very modest sum in many local restaurants in France. Add to this the fact that France abounds with self-catering accommodation options - from very well-equipped family campsites, to beautiful self-catering rural gites - and you can still have a great value-for-money holiday.

The north of France, which is often overlooked in favour of its southern cousins, is a great example of continued value and even has the ideal golden sandy beaches for a family bucket and spade holiday. Le Touquet, just 40 minutes' drive from Calais on the Opal Coast, is a lively, small seaside town, with supervised beaches and kids' beach clubs in the summer. Older children will enjoy activities such as sand yachting, horse riding and kite flying, whilst parents can relax in the therapeutic thalassotherapy spas. www.letouquet.com

SeaFrance operates 15 daily return car ferry crossings on the Dover-Calais route. Online summer fares for a car and up to five passengers start from just £25 each way and from £25 return for a day trip.
