| The Port of Belfast is a safe, accessible deepwater harbour at the head of Belfast Lough which is a natural 19km inlet of the Irish Sea on the North East coast of Ireland. The Port extends eastwards from the Lagan Bridge to an imaginary line crossing between Grey Point and Carrickfergus Castle. | ||||
The
main approach to the harbour is a channel running from the Fairway
Buoy, which is marked at both sides by single-pile light
beacons spaced at 0.5 nm. The channel width is in the order of
220m although it widens at beacons 5 and 6. There are channels
in the inner harbour; the main Victoria Channel, the Herdman Channel
to the north (Co Antrim) and the Musgrave Channel to the South
(Co. Down). |
