Harbour Belfast Information

Ferry Belfast

Travel to Belfast

Even though Belfast is not situated directly at the open sea ships put in through the Belfast Lough. The city has always had a busy harbour which is today characterized by the ferry connections to Ireland, England or France, e.g. Belfast-Stranraer. The well-known bay gives way to the river Lagan. There is a varied landscape along its banks. The Stena Line ferries are a frequently used means of transportation – and not only for tourists. Travelling by ferry to Ireland is the best option for all those who bring their own car.

Belfast and its places of interest

Belfast is a city of change and has developed to an attractive tourist destination. Especially during summertime the city is full of life. Visitors easily find their way through the city with its estimated 280,000 inhabitants. A walk in the parks and passing by the stately Victorian homes is always worthwhile doing. Linen Hall Library, the Grand Opera House and the Cathedral St. Anne are architecturally impressive as well. At the end of an eventful day one should enter one of the numerous Irish Pubs to order a draft beer. In the outskirts of the city nature lovers find a nice landscape that is ideal for hiking and biking.

Trend-setter Belfast

More and more artists, designers and creative people find the way to Belfast and get inspired by the charm of this seaport. Most of them settle in the south of the city where there are already a lot of boutiques, studios and cafés and bars. This part of the city is especially meant for shopping.
