Plan your St Malo to Jersey ferry journey

The St Malo–Jersey ferry connects Brittany with the Channel Islands. DFDS publishes passenger and vehicle sailings on this route, making it useful for an island visit from northern France.

Choose Jersey rather than Guernsey when searching for the island destination.

Check the outward and return times together if planning a day trip.

Allow time between arrival in St Malo and the ferry check-in, especially when connecting from a train.

Plan the two port connections as part of the same itinerary. For St Malo to Jersey, compare where the ferry leaves and where it arrives, then check your transfer or driving time on each side. If the return journey uses a different mainland or island port, allow for that change when arranging accommodation and onward travel.
