Belfast

Belfast, Northern Ireland

Discover the history of the Titanic, lively pubs, and the wild beauty of Northern Ireland – all from one city base.

Fly from London Southend Airport to Belfast for a trip that opens the door to Northern Ireland. Compact, creative and full of character, the city is ideal for travellers who want culture, coast, live music and big scenery in one easy escape.

Begin in the Titanic Quarter, where Belfast’s shipbuilding story comes to life beside the River Lagan. From there, head into the city centre for grand architecture, independent cafés and the buzz of St George’s Market, where fresh bread, seafood and local produce fill the air. Explore City Hall, spot street art and wander into the Cathedral Quarter, where cobbled lanes lead to cosy bars and live music.

Then use Belfast as your launchpad for more of Northern Ireland. The Giant’s Causeway, the Causeway Coastal Route, Carrick-a-Rede, castle ruins, sea cliffs and Game of Thrones filming locations are just a stone’s throw away.

Belfast is welcoming, walkable and packed with personality. Fly from London Southend Airport for a Belfast break that takes you from city streets to seaside cliffs.
