We took the train to Birkenhead then overnight ferry (new Stena boat with four-berth cabin for £229) to Belfast. The Translink train whisked us to Portrush (£54 for family of five). Arriving in centre of town allowed easy walking to accommodation and the surf beach. The Alive Adventures instructors were fantastic, entertaining kids in all weather conditions and providing snug c-skin wetsuits to prevent cold. Afternoons were spent using the frequent Causeway Rambler bus along the beautiful Antrim coastline.
