Lough Erne Upper Cruise
Belturbet > Belleek > Belturbet
The Fermanagh Lakelands offers Upper Lough Erne with its mass of reed-covered islands to explore and Enniskillen as its hub. Lower Lough Erne is one of Europe’s least crowded waterways and Tully Castle, Boa Island and Castle Caldwell are just some of the attractions before reaching the home of the world famous Belleek Pottery.

Belleek
Belleek, although a small village, is steeped in history. The unique blend of heritage attractions includes pre-historic stone carvings, ancient monastic settlements and plantation castles. The Village Main Street has a hotel, three pubs (most of who have live music at week-ends), a thatched fishing tackle shop with coffee/tea rooms, two off licences, a supermarket and a variety of other shops all keen to provide you with the things you may require. Nearer to the marina you have The Jolly Farmer pub and two smaller supermarkets with petrol stations.
Enniskillen
Enniskillen is located almost exactly in the centre of the county on the natural island which separates the Upper and Lower sections of Lough Erne. The town centre is firmly built along the long, narrow Main St, which actually changes name six times along its length! The moorings are conveniently situated for the new Erneside shopping centre and further down the Lough is the Ardhowen Theatre, which offers a full and varied programme of entertainment.
