    Fly. East Midlands, Birmingham or Stansted are all within range. Schipol is easily connected with the city probably better than big ferry ports. Also it'll save you bags of time.
    I don't think the ferry sounds like a wise use of time here.

    The overnight ferry can be a wise use of time I think. You leave London at 7.30 in the evening and get to Amsterdam before 10am the following day having slept on the boat.
