The destination

Liverpool

The best view of Liverpool is from the water. The Mersey Ferries still cross between Pier Head, Seacombe and Woodside, with a commentary on a waterfront dominated by the Three Graces: the Royal Liver Building, the Cunard Building and the Port of Liverpool Building. The river has a place in a very different story too. In April 1918 two Mersey ferries, Iris and Daffodil, were sent to Belgium and took part in the Royal Navy's raid on Zeebrugge. More recently, in May 2023, the city hosted the Eurovision Song Contest on behalf of Ukraine, which could not stage it after the Russian invasion. The Museum of Liverpool, beside the waterfront and free to enter, is a good way to fill the hours before a sailing.

Several terminals: Liverpool's ferries do not all leave from the same place, so check the terminal on your ticket.

Isle of Man: The Isle of Man Steam Packet uses the Isle of Man Ferry Terminal, 1 Triskelion Way, Liverpool L3 0BN, about 800 metres downriver of the old Pier Head Landing Stage. Lime Street station is about 2.3 kilometres away, and a bus runs from Lime Street and Liverpool ONE bus station to the terminal. The Princes Dock multi-storey car park is a short walk away.

Dublin: P&O Ferries sails to Dublin from Gladstone Dock, in the Liverpool Freeport area at Bootle, L20 1BG.

Belfast: Stena Line's Belfast service leaves from Birkenhead, on the other side of the River Mersey.
