Ferry prices to/from Ireland Forums

Oldskool

Hi Folks

I Have spent a rainy afternoon planning a trip to Edinburgh via Pembroke and Galway bay. As I have zero experience of Irish sea ferry crossings and their costs I thought I would throw a couple of questions out to those that have the experience.

Firstly am I likely to better the prices below?
Secondly what are the onboard services like on these crossings?

That trip sounds interesting. A jaunt round Ireland for a couple of weeks then across to scotland for another two or three weeks before heading back to dorset & home. Never been to either Ireland or Scotland. For those who have done it would July or August be the best time to go for the weather?

My choice would be Holyhead to Dunlaoghaire dont know prices but the crossing takes only 99 minutes.

We have a Bankholiday in May. and for the last nine years has been fine and sunny because we go to Kerry every year at that time. Might not be fine next year Laughing

Hi Pete,

We did this trip in April, staying at Fresh Water East, CC site, the night before the crossing from Fishguard to Rosslare.

Hi Folks

Thanks for the links, very helpful Wink

When you mention the last cheap diesel does that imply that other areas are a lot more expensive?

We will probably avoid Dublin and head west to the atlantic...Roll on May and the good weather Wink

Hi Pete,

Fuel is cheaper in the south, and the same price as UK mainland, in the north.

Up the west side, Dundalk is the last place for cheaper fuel, when heading for the border.
