For many years consistency was the theme of Rosslare Europort. However, 2021 has brought a huge variety of tonnage to the port. Many ships have already come and gone and no doubt more changes will occur in time.

The table below is a list of the ferries to have operated at the port so far this year. Many of the previous NIFS stories on this year’s Rosslare developments are linked to, if you wish to learn a bit more about the use of vessel.
