Thrilling trips to Wales

STENA LINE’S day trips to Oakwood theme park in south Wales become are one of the ferry company’s most popular programmes offerings — with more than 35,000 Irish making the trip last year.

The Oakwood trips programme operates on the Rosslare to Fishguard route until September 23. The introduction of a new schedule which includes an early morning fast-ferry sailing from Rosslare and a late return, means that day-trippers can now enjoy an action-packed day at the popular theme park.

Oakwood prices start from 50 per adult and 44 per child and include return sea travel on the Stena Express fast craft, coach transfers to and from Oakwood and entry to theme park where all rides and shows are free excluding Vertigo which carries a supplement. Customers wishing to take their car can do so from 178 return for a car plus two people.
