Larne is Northern Ireland's busiest passenger and car ferry port, handling around one million people and 200,000 vehicles every year. The town itself is located on the east coast of County Antrim, with its maritime history dating back over 1,000 years.
The port’s passenger facilities include excellent lounge areas, a restaurant, cash machines, shops, tourist information and a rail and bus station. The main ferry boat service operating out of the port to mainland Britain is to Cairnryan, run by P&O Irish Sea, with a crossing time of around two hours, while there is also ferry operating between Larne and Fleetwood, in the north west of England.
The town is only around 25 miles from the Scottish mainland, lying on the western side of a narrow inlet linked to the sea. The eastern side is the Magee Peninsular, and to the west is the ancient volcanic formation of Antrim Plateau. Due to Larne’s proximity to Scotland, there are magnificent views to be had towards the Mull of Kintyre, Rhins of Galloway, Islay and Paps of Jura.
The Scottish town of Troon lies on the west coast of Scotland, between two bays. The town's rich history has strong links with the game of golf, and also with sailing and is a great destination for family vacations. The beautiful Isle of Arran is easy to get to from Troon and provides a lovely backdrop to the North Bay where a great deal of the town's watersports take place. South Bay, on the other hand, has some lovely rockpools which extend into a long award winning sandy beach. Perhaps the town's most famous icon is the Royal Troon Golf Course which is one of the hosts to the annual Open Golf Championship, which it hosts roughly even seven years.
One of Scotland's most sheltered harbours is located in the town which has good infrastructure, including a good road network that connects it to the rest of the road network in Scotland and England. Amenities in the ferry terminal include drinks vending machines and snacks, as well as a vast comfortable departure lounge. Ferry services operating from the port depart to Belfast and Larne in Northern Ireland.
