Ferry from Felixstowe to Holland
Many travellers look for a ferry from Felixstowe to Holland, assuming there’s a direct service between the Suffolk coast and the Netherlands.
However, no passenger ferries currently operate between Felixstowe and any Dutch port. While Felixstowe is a major commercial shipping terminal, it handles freight only and doesn’t offer services for cars or foot passengers.
The good news is there’s a simple and convenient alternative just a short drive away. You can travel from Felixstowe to Harwich, a journey of around 60 minutes by car. From Harwich, Stena Line operates a regular passenger ferry service to the Hook of Holland, offering both day and overnight sailings. The ferries are well-equipped for both vehicles and foot passengers, with modern onboard facilities to make the crossing comfortable and stress-free.

Once you arrive in the Hook of Holland, the rest of the Netherlands is easily accessible by road or rail. Amsterdam, Rotterdam, and The Hague are all within easy reach, with direct train services available from the port.
So, although a Felixstowe to Holland ferry doesn’t exist, Harwich to the Hook of Holland is the best route to take.
