Most domestic pets can also discover the joys of France and Spain by travelling under the Pets Passport Scheme.

With Brittany Ferries pets can travel safely to France in the comfort of your own car for an extra charge. If you are sailing to Santander, northern Spain, dogs need to be booked into our dedicated kennels. We also have kennels on some of our French routes but cannot guarantee they will be available. Where kennels are available, they will be compulsory for all dogs.

Pet Friendly Holidays

We feature a wide range of pet friendly holiday accommodation in both France and Spain. Simply use our holiday search facility and select 'Dogs Allowed' in the drop down menu to administer a search.

Ferry Travel To Suit You

We have a wide range of ferry routes departing from Portsmouth, Poole and Plymouth. You can choose from either day or overnight cruise ferry sailings, or high speed services that can whisk you across the channel in as little as 135 minutes.

Preparing Your Pet For Ferry Travel

We will only accept animals to travel in the owner/escort’s vehicle. You should leave sufficient space for the animal to move freely in the vehicle, and you should make the animal as comfortable as possible, using absorbent bedding, leaving equipment and toys which the animal is familiar with and a water bowl.

Before leaving your vehicle you must ensure that the animal(s) will have enough ventilation. This will normally mean that one or more windows will need to be left partly open, but it is important also to ensure that the animal(s) cannot escape.

During The Crossing

For reasons of hygiene and the comfort of other passengers, animals must remain either in your vehicle, or in the kennel provided (dogs only). Animals will not be permitted in the passenger areas of the ship.

At the discretion of the crew and conditions permitting, owners/escorts may visit their animal on the car deck at pre-arranged times during the course of the voyage. Please report to the Information Desk on board at the beginning of the voyage for details of visit times. If you are travelling to or from Spain you will have full access to your animal throughout the sailing in our dedicated kennel area.
