The new weekly Irish Ferries service direct from Dublin to Cherbourg sets sail for the first time tomorrow, Saturday, writes Brian Byrne.
Outbound on Saturdays and inbound on Sundays, the service will offer less in terms of entertainment and a more limited range of cabins, but will be more convenient for holidaymakers living in the northern half of the country.
The MV Epsilon has a capacity for 500 passengers. Fares and sailing times are available on irishferries.com.
