    Do you need to show passport or an id on the ferry. I ask as my wife is here on a visa and I've got no idea if they check or the CTA means they don't bother
    codebee's avatar
    Yes, you’re travelling from the UK to EU so ID will be checked.

    "UK and Irish citizens travelling on our routes between Britain and Ireland do not need a passport to travel to Britain or Ireland but are advised to take a form of proof of identity. A valid passport or Irish passport card, photographic driving license, International Student Card, government issued photographic ID card, health insurance/social security photographic ID card, photographic bus/train pass or work ID card with photo will usually suffice. A birth certificate will provide adequate proof of identity for children (17 years and under with no photographic identification) to travel on our sailings. Non UK/Irish citizens will require a valid passport and a visa where applicable. You should check with the relevant embassy before travelling regarding visa requirements.

    Passengers who arrive at our ports in Britain or Ireland without current valid documentation may not be allowed to enter either Britain or Ireland."

    Is that Eustace Street, bottom of Temple Bar?

    Be advised Dublin is very expensive, some bars are nearly €10 a pint!
    pennywise1987's avatar
    Stay as far away from temple bar as possible, and in particular, "the" temple bar. Tourist trap and they'll absolutely fleece you. There are plenty of bars where you'll get a pint for €5.50, sometimes less.

    Dublin worst place I’ve visited

    You can also buy a bus ticket. £3each way per person. Dedicated ferry bus takes you into the centre of Dublin. Buy in advance when you book your boat or buy onboard.

    Can recommend Lincons inn, decent food and sensible drink prices.

    Factor in the petrol to get to Holyhead…… and back to your house….. more like £100+

    That's usually how travel deals work unless you live next to the point of departure

    Do I need a passport?

    Not sure about StenaLine, but there used to be Dancing on the Sealink.

    Could you buy a Tuesday ticket and a Wednesday ticket so you can stay over night ?
    towser44's avatar
    Looks like you can in the system, seems to allow 36 hour stays. I tried out Tuesday 7 November and back Wednesday 8 November and it is £12 return for an adult.

    Edit - Mmm, seems to limit the return journey's, so perhaps not! (edited)

    Parking at Holyhead port is a total nightmare.

    Be weary of the Irish Sea if weather is bad! 4hr crossing so factor that in aswell…… I travelled with Irish Ferries both times but one presumes they all follow the same shipping course
  16. vb90's avatar
    Doesnt this look like a better option for most people? Multiple dates available. £2 more and you get a lot more dates. I agree that the luggage policy is a bit crap but surely the savings on time are worth it?

    Also check out the train option as the anomaly that Dublin is still a destination on UK trains

    e.g. see nationalrail.co.uk/ put Dublin in as destination

    so each way is £48 from Euston to Dublin on the train and you can stay longer - not the quickest journey - a bit of waiting around - some of it is scenic - one I've thought about doing. O/H did it when couldn't get a flight so can be done

    e.g. ojp.nationalrail.co.uk/ser…dep
