Condor Ferries
About
Condor Ferries operates fast and conventional car ferries between the United Kingdom and the Channel Islands, servicing ports such as Poole and Portsmouth to Guernsey and Jersey. With daily sailings on both routes—in particular the Poole‑to‑Guernsey service runs four times a week and the Portsmouth‑to‑Guernsey service six times a week—voyagers can travel comfortably in spacious passenger lounges, grab a meal at the onboard bars and shops, and enjoy onboard amenities such as Wi‑Fi, duty‑free shopping, and carriage of pets and bicycles. The journey takes approximately three hours on the fast vessel from Poole and up to seven hours on the traditional vessel from Portsmouth. Condor Ferries welcomes passengers with reduced mobility and offers assistance at the ports and onboard. The ferry company also provides a range of holiday packages and accommodation options in Guernsey, Jersey, St Malo, and surrounding regions.
