Pickup at Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) — meet-and-greet with a sign at the exit
Direct transfer between Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport and the Dunkirk ferry terminal in the Loon-Plage port area.
This route connects Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport with the ferry area of the Port of Dunkirk, located in Loon-Plage in the Nord department. The road distance is approximately 267 km. Under normal traffic conditions, the drive generally takes around 3 hours, but the actual duration depends on traffic, departure time, and final access to the port area.
After leaving the airport grounds, the route primarily follows major roads toward northern France, including the A1 and then the highways serving the Dunkirk coastline. Depending on traffic and the route selected, it may also use the A26 and A16 before reaching the access roads to the port.
Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport has several departure and arrival areas across Terminals 1, 2, and 3. Terminal 2 includes several halls: 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D, 2E, 2F, and 2G. To arrange pickup, provide the terminal shown on your ticket or confirmed by your airline.
After a flight, allow enough time to leave the aircraft, complete any required checks, and collect your luggage before starting the journey to Dunkirk. The flight number and arrival terminal are especially helpful for international arrivals or when changing halls within Terminal 2.
The area is served by several public transit options. Louvre-Rivoli station is nearby, while Pont Neuf and Châtelet provide access to other lines and connections. Palais-Royal–Musée du Louvre station also serves the museum area. Walking is often a practical option for trips to the Seine, Palais-Royal, Les Halles, or the Tuileries.
Before departure, check the ferry company, the ship's destination, and the address shown on your booking confirmation. This information helps you select the access point for the correct terminal rather than a general address in Dunkirk.
The final part of the journey takes place on the access roads to the Port of Dunkirk, shared by cars, coaches, and trucks. Follow port signage and the ferry company's instructions as you approach the terminal.
For a scheduled ferry, do not use only the ship's departure time as your reference. The check-in deadline shown on your ticket is the time to meet. Allow extra time for traffic on the northern highways, delays around Roissy, and any checks or lines at the port entrance.
Our estimates take distance and travel time, including traffic, into account. The final fare is confirmed in the booking form.
The ferry terminal is in the port area of the Dunkirk urban area, in Loon-Plage, west of central Dunkirk. The area is mainly devoted to maritime, logistics and industrial activities. It is separate from the shopping districts, Malo-les-Bains beach and the main tourist attractions in the city center.
This location is convenient for travelers continuing by sea to the UK or Ireland, depending on their booked route. Once you arrive in the area, central Dunkirk, Malo-les-Bains and the neighboring coastal towns are separate destinations that require their own transfers.
Dunkirk offers several attractions connected to its maritime history and urban heritage. The city center is home to the belfry and various cultural venues, while Malo-les-Bains has a long beach, a promenade and architecture typical of the North Sea coast.
If you're stopping before or after a crossing, choose your accommodation based on your next stop: central Dunkirk for exploring the city, Loon-Plage to stay near the port area, or somewhere near the main roads for a quick onward journey to Calais, Lille or Belgium.
The Dunkirk area is also a great base for exploring the beaches and landscapes of the French Flemish coast. The towns of Gravelines, Grand-Fort-Philippe, Leffrinckoucke and Bray-Dunes each offer something different, from heritage sites to dunes and coastline.
If your final destination is central Dunkirk rather than the maritime terminal, be sure to provide the correct address when planning the next part of your trip. Both areas are within the same urban area but serve different arrival needs.

The driving distance is about 267 km. The trip usually takes around 3 hours in light traffic, but may take longer during busy periods or if traffic slows on the A1, A26 or A16.
The terminal is in the port area of Loon-Plage. For the Dunkirk–Dover route, DFDS lists the Car Ferry Terminal at Port 5670, among other details. However, check the exact address on your confirmation, as access points may vary by route.
Allow time for disembarking, any checks, collecting your luggage, the drive and the ferry check-in deadline. The check-in deadline matters more than the ship's scheduled departure time.
Specify the terminal shown by your airline: Terminal 1, Terminal 2 and its concourse if applicable, or Terminal 3. Your flight number can also help confirm the arrival point if the information changes.
No. The ferry terminals are in the port area of Loon-Plage, west of Dunkirk. An address in the city center, Malo-les-Bains or a Dunkirk hotel is not a substitute for the maritime terminal address.

KENZA from Casablanca. I used Booking Paris Transfer during my last stay in Paris for a day of shopping and then for my airport transfer. I highly recommend them to any visitor. The Mercedes van is extremely comfortable, and the driver is very friendly and exceptionally helpful. He will put you at ease and listen to all your requests. Plus, the prices are very reasonable. On my last day, I used them for my airport transfer. The driver accompanied me to check-in and helped me with my luggage. He also helped me with my tax refund paperwork. TRULY EXCEPTIONALLY HELPFUL. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND BOOKING PARIS TRANSFER!
