Ferry companies of the world

You can find here several types of maritime operators in charge of the traffic of various types of ferries. The very classical ferry connecting Calais to Dover or the “ferry” which can load a car and about ten passengers between the islands, also thevery old seaman which embarks some petsons to observe the whales in Australia. Or the< water-bus to dine wit the candles on the Seine in Paris.

These intervenients appear here only so far as they have a website. Many new possibilities will be discovered on the spot, either in the commercial port, or in the fishing port or tourist quay. Some companies which closed, ceased their activities, merged or changed nameare here cited with the mention “stopped activities in…” because they remain likely to return on the maritime market.
