Cairnryan Guide

Cairnryan Ferry Port

The Scottish town of Cairnryan overlooks Loch Ryan and is notable for its large modern ferry port. The port provides regular year round connections between Scotland and Northern Ireland with services to/from Belfast and Larne operated by 2 of the biggest ferry operators - Stena Line and P&O Ferries, each operating from separate terminals. Whilst many travellers just pass through Cairnryan en route to or from Northern Ireland on the ferry, the town features a hotel, some bed and breakfasts and guest houses for those spending the night.
