Larne Harbour, County Antrim

Larne

Larne is a substantial seaport and industrial town on the North Channel on the eastern coast of County Antrim. It has been used as a seaport for over 1,000 years, and is today a major passenger and freight roll-on roll-off port, serving in particular the ferries between Ulster and the Wigtownshire ports.

The town stands on the western side of a narrow inlet between the sea and Larne Lough, giving it a protected location and providing, in Larne Lough, a large anchorage. (Read more)
