Crossing the channel

Need to cross the English channel from England to preferably Belgium at the end of April, was just wondering if anyone can tell me the easiest and most cost effective way? (I won't have a car)
Cheers!

If you mean London to Brussels, the take the Eurostar train that goes through the Channel Tunnel from St Pancras station. The earlier you book, the cheaper the fare.You can also go to Paris using the service.

If you have an aversion to tunnels, then you can fly or ferry. But from where to where?

Take the Eurostar as mentioned to Brussels and then change for a train to Bruges.
