Ireland—Britain and Vice Versa
Stena Line, the world's largest international ferry company, operates on 16 routes
in northwestern Europe, including the Irish Sea and the English Channel. Stena's
HSS (High-speed Sea Service) ships cruise between Belfast in Northern Ireland
and Stranraer in Scotland in only 105 minutes. Stena Line's Superferry service
offers leisurely crossings with duty-free shopping, meals, and even a movie (on
some routes). The Superferry Koningin Beatrix on the Rosslare-Fishguard route,
capable of carrying 2,100 passengers and 500 automobiles, is the largest and
most luxurious ferry to operate on the southern Irish Sea. Visit www.stenaline.com .
Irish Ferries can take you from Dublin to Holyhead, and P&O Irish Sea ferries
serve on the Larne-Cairnryan route. Visit www.irishferries.com .
Coming from London by train requires a transfer to either a Stena Line or Irish
Ferries ferry at Holyhead. The Stena Line ferries serve the port of Dun Laoghaire,
a suburb of Dublin, where passengers can transfer to the center of the city by the
local train service, DART.
