With up to 500,000 passports reported to be caught in the backlog and additional payments being demanded to process applications, holidaymakers will be relieved to hear there is an exotic paradise of white sand beaches and turquoise seas just across the water in easy reach without the hassle of needing a passport. With fast ferries sailing from Poole and Weymouth, holidaymakers simply need to board the ship, sit back, relax and take in the stunning scenery across the English Channel.
