Larne GB

Northern Ireland

Larne perches on County Antrim's coast, serving as Northern Ireland's main ferry port to Scotland. The A8 coastal road from Belfast provides the most scenic approach, whilst the M2 motorway offers quicker access from the airport and beyond. The town's strategic position has made it a crossing point for centuries, and today's harbor still bustles with ferries heading to Cairnryan. The distinctive 1888 Chaine Memorial Tower overlooks the port, commemorating the Victorian railway pioneer who shaped modern Larne.
