The old terminal was a shed. The new one is a single long roof on slender columns, with a glazed waiting hall under it. You can see the ferry coming from the moment you arrive, and the ferry can see you.

A concrete waiting hall with a long timber bench and full-height glass towards the sea.

Board-marked concrete, larch and glass: materials that can take salt, storms and a hundred thousand passengers a year.

Waiting should be the best part of the journey.
