Is Belfast Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Solo travel

LOVE Belfast. Love Ireland in general but there's something extra special about Belfast 💚 I've traveled solo, with friends, & with my husband. The history of the area is fascinating, the Titanic exhibit is really cool & informative, the nightlife has always delivered great times and the people are amazing.

I loved Belfast! It was also my first ever solo trip (yay)! I stayed in air BnB about 30min walk from the city centre and it was really quiet. After a concert, around midnight I walked to the apartment on my own and felt 100% safe. No unwanted attention whatsoever! I rented a car and went to see the Game of Thrones studio and the Giants Causeway (recommend). The city itself is beautiful to want around, and then there’s the Titanic.

The main city is very safe and you can usually see people around even pretty late at nights. Its always still a good idea to go out with some people. It can be a bit hard to get a taxi on certain days

I’m not sure there’s anywhere in Belfast I’d consider unsafe for young women. I tend to avoid streets with pubs when it’s dark and full of men drinking outside. That’s just my comfort level though, I don’t consider it dangerous. I know some women who won’t walk alone on the towpath/through the park at night because they consider it a high risk activity. Honestly our main problems here are probably sectarianism, racism and antisocial behaviour (drinking and yelling on the street at night, that...

generally safe but would advise against some areas unfortunately visibly queer people will need to be a little safer. the most common experience would be slurs, but rarely assault I feel safe enough by myself but tend to stay within my queer community!
