Belfast is one of the great cities of the UK, being the capital of Northern Ireland and a bustling hub of culture. It’s got a rich maritime history, making it a perfect destination for anyone who loves to travel by sea. In fact, it’s the birthplace of the Titanic and home to plenty of memorials and museums about it – a great day activity for more hard-nosed cruisers! There’s also the busy city centre, plenty of other historic sites and, of course, the Giant’s Causeway only a short drive away! Cruises from Belfast go all over the British Isles and beyond, so it’s also a great starting point if you want to spend a little longer there getting familiar with the city.
