night ferry
Nocturnal sea passage
A night ferry is a ferry service that operates overnight, allowing passengers to sleep during the crossing and arrive at their destination in the morning.
Night ferries typically offer cabins or sleeping accommodations: We booked the night ferry to avoid losing a day of travel.
The term also historically referred to overnight train services that carried sleeping cars across water on ferry boats.
