How to book cheap train tickets from Shoreham-by-Sea to Folkestone

Travelling in off-peak train times

We recommend buying train tickets from Shoreham-by-Sea to Folkestone during off-peak hours.

Split Tickets to save an average extra 30%

For instance, if you're travelling from Shoreham-by-Sea to Folkestone, you might find that purchasing a ticket from A to C, then C to B costs less than a direct ticket. This method is perfectly legal and often doesn’t require leaving your seat.

Book in advance to save an average of 61%
