Docks in Dublin, Ireland

[beachyfe]

I've read that there are 2 docks in Dublin, Ireland (Howth and Dun Laoghaire). Anyone happen to know which one cruise ships might dock at?

Cruise ships dock at neither Howth or Dun Laoghaire but at the Port of Dublin within two miles of the city centre.

Thank you very much!! Our cruise also stops in Belfast - any suggestions for what to see or where to go? I'm very excited to see Ireland.

There are such a lot of things to do it's hard to know where to start! Usually seeing The Antrim Coast and Giants Causway is top of the vistors' list and while in the region also doing a tour of the Bushmills Distillery. In previous threads 'Coxswain' has given many tips on 'What to do in Northern Ireland' - I have found one of them -

Doing a search on this forum of 'Belfast' and 'Northern Ireland' will bring up many posts with suggestions/reviews from previous cruisers. If there is anything in particular you need information about, there are plenty of us 'locals' around to help!
Here are a couple tourism web sites -

And in Belfast many tourists visit the Crown Bar, owned by the National Trust
