Ferry from Larne, Northern Ireland? Stranraer is situated at the end of Loch Ryan in relatively shallow water, restricting the size of vessels serving the port. A new terminal has recently been built at the mouth of the loch and is used by larger, faster, vessels, cutting the journey time across the Irish Sea by three-quarters of an hour
