Conventional ferries are large vessels with deck seats and indoor lounges. Moreover, they have large garages, capable of carrying a great number of vehicles, so that you can take your car or motorbike with you. There are also eating establishments and cabins. They are the best option if you are traveling with a pet, as there are designated pet-keeping areas too. They are more budget-friendly and are rarely affected by bad weather conditions, so they usually run on time. On the downside, they are slower than high-speed ferries.
