For customers looking to bring their car, travelling by ferry to Ireland is the affordable, convenient and comfortable option, with crossings taking an average of four hours.

Customers can sail to the island of Ireland from Great Britain with Stena Line, Irish Ferries and P&O Ferries, and each offer a seamless journey.
Pets are welcome onboard all three lines (some restrictions apply) and customers can enjoy a delicious meal and relax in comfortable lounges. Plus, by taking their car customers won’t have to worry about luggage restrictions.
Based on crossings in July
Stena Line offers four routes, including Cairnryan to Belfast, which takes just two hours.
