2 operators run this water, from 96 h 00 to 504 h 00 — a difference of 408 h 00 on the same crossing. Bordeaux (Saint-Jean - Paludate) has an airport 13 km from the quay, so this is a crossing you can make one way and fly the other.
One row per operator and speed. Where a service is sold as fast and its average does not clear 45 km/h, the word appears in quotation marks — the boat is fast craft, the crossing is not.
If this crossing does not suit, these quays also reach Bordeaux (Saint-Jean - Paludate) without a change. It is the question a single-route page cannot answer about itself and an atlas can.

Our records for the Basel–Bordeaux (Saint-Jean - Paludate) crossing were read on 11 August 2026 and describe the network as it ran that week. We hold no month-by-month variation, so this page cannot tell you whether a crossing runs in February.
If you are travelling well outside August 2026, confirm with the operator before you plan around it.
No fares. The choice between Scenic Cruises at 96 h 00 and Avalon Waterways at 504 h 00 is mostly a price decision, and we hold no prices for either.
No departure times. No rate is held for this pair either, so we cannot say how often it runs.
