Oh I don't know - Used the VC 6 years running and was never seasick. Will admit to seeing a few who were.


Youre clearly made of sterner stuff! I felt a bit ropey both ways but no worse. Ive never experienced anything quite like it in terms of the number of passengers who were genuinely ill. Not good.


Don't forget to leave a review of the French and other European campsites you have visited!

Yep we used the Dieppe-Newhaven route this year and for the convenience in avoiding the trawl from and particularly back to Calais it really is a good option. It not much more dosh compared to Dover routes, esp adding in the fuel saving. We'll be using Le Havre next summer as were planning Loire and the west coast.

Its not much more dosh compared to Dover routes, esp adding in the fuel saving. The ship was lovely and very relaxing. The only curious thing was it took an age to get on land once we had docked. We waited ages in the car. We'll be using Le Havre next summer as were planning Loire and the west coast.
