Cruise to Spain

Sail direct with Brittany Ferries

Brittany Ferries now operates two sailings a week on the MV Connemara from Rosslare to Bilbao. This is an 'economie' service offering great value - on board passengers can expect a comfortable, no-frills service with a distinctly Spanish theme. There is a small shop, internet cafe, self service restaurant and a bar, as well as passenger lounges. Interior and exterior en-suite cabins will be available with beds for up to four passengers.

Four-legged members of the family will also be accommodated thanks to a small allocation of pet-friendly cabins on the ship.
