FERRIES TO SCOTLAND FROM NORTHERN IRELAND
Choose one of the regular sailings from the major ports of Belfast and Larne and you'll arrive in Cairnryan in Dumfries & Galloway, around 80 miles south of Glasgow. The port enjoys good road, rail and bus links with Glasgow.
For those looking to come on two feet (or even two wheels), there are seasonal passenger ferries from Ballycastle to the beautiful island of Islay and the port at Campbeltown on the Kintyre Peninsula in Argyll.
- Belfast to Cairnryan with Stena Line
- Larne to Cairnryan with P&O Ferries
- Ballycastle to Port Ellen with Kintyre Express - take a passenger ferry to the island of Islay in Argyll. Details of timetable to be announced
- Ballycastle to Campbeltown with Kintyre Express - reach Campbeltown on Argyll's Kintyre Peninsula by passenger ferry
All crossings are between one and two hours, depending on the route and service - so you could even come for a day trip, but we reckon you won't want to leave so soon. Find more routes and ways to travel at Omio.co.uk.
