Transmanche Ferries
Transmanche Ferries is part of the LD Lines network, and offers ferries between the ferry port of Dieppe in France and that of Newhaven in England.
Transmanche Ferries was created by the Syndicat Mixte de Promotion de l'Activité Transmanche to ensure the preservation and development of trade and tourist links between the Seine Maritime and Somme districts and southern England. In 2007 the running of Transmanche Ferries was handed over to Louis Dreyfus Armateurs, whose LD Lines company also operates cross channel services out of Le Havre.
This arrangement not only ensures the continuing development of the Newhaven to Dieppe ferry route, which has become an increasingly popular alternative to Dover and Calais, but has also made it possible to increase the frequency of cross-channel sailings in the central section of the Western Channel.

Onboard Facilities
Transmanche have 2 vessels: the Seven Sisters and the Côte d'Albâtre, both superb new ships launched in 2006. The Seven Sisters (which serves the Dieppe to Newhaven route) and the Côte d'Albâtre (which operates on the LD Lines route between Portsmouth and Le Havre) are capable of speeds of up to 22 knots (more than 40 km/h) and are equipped with ultra-modern stabilizers and therefore offers optimum comfort whatever the sailing conditions.
Onboard you will find some excellent facilities, a self-service restaurant with a variety of dishes, a stunning panoramic lounge, bar, slot machines, the chance to watch a film, and a boutique offering a wide selection of wines, beers and spirits, tobacco and fragrances, as well as books, cameras and a whole host of present ideas.
