Dublin Port

Ireland’s Main Gateway to Britain

Dublin Port is Ireland’s largest port and its busiest passenger ferry hub, with Irish Ferries and Stena Line sailings to Holyhead in Wales, and longer routes to Liverpool and continental Europe. Passenger terminals are on the north side of the River Liffey, a short drive from the city centre.

Before You Travel

From 28 September 2026, Stena Line and Irish Ferries require every passenger (any age or nationality) on sailings between Ireland and Wales to show a valid passport or Irish passport card at check-in, because of UK Border Force rules. Other photo ID is not accepted.
Routes between Great Britain and Northern Ireland are not affected by this change.

Advice last reviewed 2026-09-24. Border rules change, so check official guidance before travelling.

🅿️ Parking & Drop-Off

Short-stay and long-stay parking is available near the passenger terminals for foot passengers. Check your operator’s guidance before leaving a car at the port.
