Liverpool to Belfast is Stena Line's overnight Irish Sea crossing between Merseyside and Northern Ireland. Although branded Liverpool, the terminal is across the Mersey at Twelve Quays in Birkenhead, easily reached from the M53. The ships sail in about eight hours, usually overnight, with cabins, a bar, lounges and a restaurant, so you can sleep through the crossing and drive off in Belfast in the morning. It is the relaxed alternative to flying or to the long drive up to Cairnryan, and it lands you right in Belfast for the Antrim coast, the Giant's Causeway, the city itself or the road south to Dublin. The route carries cars, motorhomes, freight and foot passengers, and an overnight cabin is well worth booking.
About eight hours, usually overnight, with cabins available.
