Onboard entertainment
Children's menu
When their tummies start rumbling, head for the restaurant!
In addition to our daily menus with typical French & English dishes, vegetarian dishes and salads, we offer a children's menu consisting of a potato burger, a breaded hake portion or a steak burger plus a 33 cl bottle of water and a dessert (farm yoghurt/apple compote/white country cheese or ice cream). Plus, every kid’s meal comes with a special kid’s pack!
Enjoy a meal with the whole family onboard during your next sailing.
Duty Free Shop
Whether you're looking for a toy to keep your children entertained during the crossing or gifts for your loved ones, you'll find plenty of things in our Duty-Free shop to delight the young, and the young at heart too!
Our LEGO range is always a popular choice for older children, whilst the little ones can enjoy a cuddle with our adorable DFDS cuddly toys.
ORCA
Whether you're a budding marine observer, an underwater enthusiast or just curious, this will interest you: from 11th April to 29th September 2024, you can join Marthe and Silvia from the ORCA association onboard our Newhaven-Dieppe vessels who will be on hand to help you observe the habitat of the mammals living in the Channel.
Can you spot any dolphins?
