What better place to enjoy a festive walk than along the Maritime Mile! Enjoy the Belfast’s glistening waterfront as the Maritime Mile lights up for the festive season.
Begin your journey at Belfast Harbour Office which has been the headquarters for the Harbour Commissioners for more than 150 years
Continue past the AC Hotel Belfast, spotting their Christmas décor and follow the path across the Lagan footbridge.
From here, you will see the Odyssey and Abercorn Marina, where you will find SoundYard, an impressive installation that recreates the sounds of hammering once heard from the shipyards. SoundYard is beautifully lit up every evening with sights (and sounds) not to be missed!
Continue around the harbour, past the Belfast Buoys, where you will see the dazzling lights to the Hamilton Dock, home to the SS Nomadic. This ship was the tender to RMS Titanic and the last remaining White Star Line ship in the world! Discover the historic ship’s decks, funnels and gangways elegantly illuminated.
The bright lights at Titanic Belfast are a spectacular sight to behold. The building is illuminated, and the cascading lights are almost as tall as Titanic’s bow! For the perfect picture moment, head to the Titanic Sign – the ultimate backdrop for that all important Instagram shot.
Continue down along the Titanic Walkway, where you will see the Great Light, one of the largest optics of its kind ever built in the world and is around 130 years old, illuminated for everyone to see at night. Continue along the path until you reach HMS Caroline which was the last known surviving warship from one of the largest naval battles ever fought – 1916’s Battle of Jutland.
From here you can head back on foot or catch the glider (G2) which runs every 30 mins until 11:12pm.
So, wrap up warm and discover the lights of the Maritime Mile!
