Belfast Ferry Port Overview
Belfast is situated across the Irish Sea from Stranraer on the North- East coast of Northern Ireland.

Belfast Ferry Port Directions
By Car
The Norfolk Line Terminal is situated close to Stena Line's New Terminal, and is clearly signposted, close to Junction 1 of the M2 motorway - Fortwilliam Roundabout-.
The Steam Packet Terminal can be reached via the M1. At the Broadway Roundabout take the 3rd exit onto the A12/Westlink, heading to the M2/M3, and continue to follow the A12 for 2.1 miles, then take the A2 and follow it for 0.7 miles, and you will see signs for the Port and the Steam Packet Terminal.
By Taxi
To compensate for the luck of public transport to the new Stena Line Terminal, black public hire taxis operate a taxi-share scheme from the terminal to the city centre.
By Bus
Public transport, to and from the Steam Packet Terminal, are operated by Ulsterbus and Translink. These run a service between the Ferry Port, the Railway Station and the rest of Northern Ireland.
