The Stena Line ferry crossing from Fleetwood in Lancashire to Larne, just 22 miles from Belfast, is a great way to reach Northern Ireland and all it has to offer.
The crossing, on Stena Line's modern and comfortable SuperFerry, takes about 8 hours. En suite cabins are available for your relaxation, and on board are all the usual facilities expected from a modern ferry. There are sailings every day (except over the Christmas period), but because tides affect the arrival and departure times at Fleetwood, it's best to check the for your preferred travel date. With fares from only £85 for a car with driver this ferry crossing offers real value for money!
Larne is the gateway to County Antrim, one of the most beautiful and
historic parts of all Ireland. Just up the road is the famous drive along
the Antrim coast, past the Devil's Causeway and the vertigo inducing pedestrian
swing bridge at Carrick-a-Rede. Or head inland to the wild forests which
offer great walking and cycling trails. On the English side Fleetwood is just north of Blackpool, on the southern edge of Morecambe Bay, within easy reach of the Lake District and all of Northern England. Manchester and Liverpool are both about an hour away by car. |
