Vessel Description

ARMORIQUE is a Ro-Pax (Roll-on/Roll-off Passenger) cruise ferry operated by Brittany Ferries, one of the company's mid-sized fleet vessels serving cross-Channel and Ireland routes. Built at the STX Europe shipyard in Saint-Nazaire and delivered in 2009, she was purpose-designed for the Roscoff–Plymouth route and represents a significant investment in passenger comfort for a short-sea ferry.

The vessel is fitted with modern amenities typical of Brittany Ferries' fleet philosophy, including restaurant facilities, lounges, and en-suite cabin accommodation intended to provide a cruise-ferry experience. Her diesel-electric propulsion system supports efficient operations across the English Channel and Celtic Sea trading areas.

ARMORIQUE takes her name from the ancient Celtic name for the region of Brittany in northwest France, reflecting the cultural identity of her operator. She sails under the French flag and is registered under French maritime administration, complying with SOLAS international safety conventions applicable to passenger vessels on international voyages.
