Getting ashore
Belfast has three berth locations. The Belfast Cruise Terminal, opened in 2019, is used for all cruise calls. Check your ship’s notice for the berth.
Watch-outs
Belfast’s weather is changeable. Taxis are the easiest way to reach the city and the Titanic sites. Carry a little extra time for the return.

City centre
The city has the Victorian City Hall, the St George’s Market and the Cathedral Quarter with its galleries and music venues.
Giant's Causeway
The Giant’s Causeway is a UNESCO site of basalt columns on the north coast, about 90 minutes by road. Tours go there in season.

The terminal is flat and step-accessible. Titanic Belfast has lifts. The Cathedral Quarter has cobbles. Ask your operator for accessible transport.
