Troon Port Ferry Overview
Troon Ferry Port is on the west coast of Scotland, in South Ayrshire is well connected by an efficient trunk-road system to the motorways of Scotland and England and is one of the most sheltered harbours on the West Coast of Scotland. A major ferry port, Troon has two ro-ro terminals that serve daily freight and passenger fast-ferry services to Northern Ireland. Passenger services are offered by P&O Irish Sea who offer a route to Larne in Northern Ireland.
Troon Harbour played a notable part in the development of the town for many years. It was home to the Ailsa Shipbuilding Company, which constructed many vessels for worldwide customers but mainly small passenger and various merchant vessels. The fishing fleet from Ayr moved to Troon Harbour and a revitalisation of the abandoned section of the harbour started. An approach road was constructed to connect to a P&O terminal which operates a service to Ireland. The Seacat high speed ferry service briefly operated from Troon Harbour but has now ended.
Troon is famous for its Royal Troon golf course, one of the hosts to the Open Golf Championship. The course is chosen to host this annual event roughly every seven years. |
