Brittany Ferries MV Mont St Michel - Further Ferry Information
The MV Mont St Michel is a ferry operated by Brittany Ferries. She was built at Van der Giessen de Noord shipyard in the Netherlands and has been sailing for Brittany Ferries since 2002. The Mont St Michel was to have been called the Deauville or the Honfleur but this was thought to be too similar to Barfleur. The internal layout of the Mont St Michel is based on the MV Normandie, which also operates on the Portsmouth–Caen (Ouistreham) route.

The MV Mont St Michel is named after the Normandy town of the same name. This modern vessel offers passengers a fantastic array of features including a choice of restaurants, bars, cinemas, a night club and a games room. Mont St Michel can hold up to 2,200 passengers. The vessel operates state-of-the-art navigation and safety management systems making the MV St Michel one of the safest cruise ferries afloat.
Construction of the vessel started on 7 June 2001 and she was launched on 16 March 2002. Major delays in fitting out meant that the ship was not delivered until December 2002, over 5 months behind schedule. In place of the Mont St Michel, the smaller Quiberon was kept in the fleet throughout the busy 2002 summer season, assisted by the Purbeck. Mont St Michel sails under the French flag and is registered in Caen.
