Harwich International ferry port can be found in Essex on the east coast of England, about one mile upstream from the town of Harwich, opposite the port of Felixstowe and is a natural gateway to Europe. The ferry terminal itself is in Parkeston and the main passenger ferry activity in Harwich is provided by the Stena Line route to the Hook of Holland in the Netherlands and is operated by modern state-of-the-art ships. Approximately 1 million passengers pass through the ferry terminal each year either starting or completing their trip. Harwich ferry port has in the past featured connections with Sweden (Gothenburg) and Germany (Cuxhaven) with DFDS Seaways but both services ceased around 2005 and as yet have not been restarted by other ferry companies. If you are passing through then be sure to visit Dovercourt which lies just to the south of Harwich. The older town of Dovercourt has been settled since prehistoric times and the iron lighthouses or 'Leading Lights' which sit along the picturesque Blue Flag beach are worth a look.
Found on the south east coast of Denmark next to the North Sea, Esbjerg Port is famous for the expressive large scale and unique art in the area. There are several outlets showcasing local artists, as well as an abundance of cafes, popular restaurants and local seafood specialists. Close to Esbjerg Port are several medieval towns, amusements parks and beaches; there certainly isn’t a shortage of things to do. The only ferry route from the port is to Harwich, a small port in the east of England, making the crossing one of the easiest and cheapest ways to travel between England and Denmark. The sailing is seasonal and doesn’t operate throughout the year, so it is worthwhile checking live updates for departure times. There are two cafes at the port itself, as well as a shop selling local products and every-day items for last minute purchases.
