Ferries operate to Swansea in South Wales and to Roscoff in France. The Roscoff crossing is usually an overnight service. Service is provided for foot passengers, car, bicycle, minibus, motor home, and van transport. Caravans, boats, trailers, and motorcycles can also be transported by ferry, while facilities on board include restaurants, bars and duty free shopping.

Basic services are available for the disabled, with access to port areas facilitated by wide doorways and ramps where appropriate. Further assistance may also be provided by the ferry operators and port staff, upon prior request and notification.
