For ferry planning, start with the sailing rather than the sightseeing itinerary. Check the exact port, boarding time and passenger or vehicle conditions, then work backwards to decide where to stay and how much transfer time is needed. Schedules vary by season and operator, so confirm the exact sailing rather than relying on a typical summer pattern.

Use the terminal named on the confirmation. Ports with several quays, marinas or ferry companies can have different boarding points even when the destination name is the same.
Schedules vary by season and operator, so confirm the exact sailing rather than relying on a typical summer pattern. Vehicle travellers should also allow time for check-in queues and marshalling.
Recheck the departure status, identification requirements, luggage or vehicle conditions and any operator messages. If you have a tight onward connection, add a realistic buffer because ferries operate in a marine environment and timings can change.
For accommodation, weigh proximity to the terminal against access to the places you want to visit. An early sailing often favours a port-side stay; a later departure may make a central location more useful.
