Board the short passenger ferry across Lough Foyle to Magilligan Point in Northern Ireland, then journey onward to the UNESCO Giant's Causeway — all from your cruise port, no coach required for the crossing.
What to expect
The little ferry casts off from Greencastle Harbour with views of the 14th-century fort above you and the Antrim hills ahead. On the Magilligan shore, your pre-arranged private driver whisks you south along the Causeway Coastal Route — Mussenden Temple, Downhill Demesne and then the extraordinary basalt columns of the Giant's Causeway at the World Heritage Site. The return ferry in late afternoon frames the Donegal mountains in the setting light.
Good to know
Ferry runs seasonally (typically April–September); confirm schedule and book crossing in advance at loughfoyleferry.com. Arrange the Northern Ireland private transfer independently before sailing — recommended operators include local Coleraine or Limavady taxi firms. Allow at least 6 hours for the full Causeway day; check your all-aboard time carefully.
