Holyhead Port can confirm that the Terminal 5 ferry berth at the port reopened on 16 January as planned and ferry services have resumed. The ferry berths had been closed since 7 December 2024.
While we are relying on one berth for all ferry operations, the ferries will run on an adjusted timetable, and given the situation, we plan to facilitate a full schedule for both ferry operators from Terminal 5 on a temporary basis. If you have a ferry booking to or from Holyhead, please check the timetable with the operator.
We will provide an updated timeline for reopening Terminal 3 as soon as possible.
We appreciate the patience and understanding of all those affected by the closure, and we’d like to thank our teams and stakeholders for their support and cooperation during this challenging time.

The Port of Holyhead provides berthing and handling facilities for a range of commercial operations. Accordingly, a variety of vessels regularly call at the port, these include regular scheduled passenger and vehicle ferries, cruise vessels, tankers, bulk vessels, fishing vessels and military support vessels.
Additionally a large recreational community use the sheltered harbour area with a dedicated marina hosting permanent moorings and berth facilities. The harbour has the ability to accommodate additional vessels at anchor although this is not common practice: anchoring within the fairway is prohibited and holding areas within some areas are poor.
