the perfect way to experience and discover Belfast from the water
“Amazing to say I've spent most of my life in coastal Maine towns and not NEARLY enough time on the water. I'm so excited that there will be an affordable way to catch the breeze and see the town this summer!”

The Connection
Connecting the Downtown & East Belfast for locals & visitors alike.
Living or staying in East Belfast in one of the abundant hotels, motels, and B&B's offers great views of Downtown Belfast but can become a chore, especially when it comes to drinking or dining in town and getting back to accommodations.
Let THE BACK AND FORTH take you home in style after a day on the town. Sailing home has to be better than walking, right?
We have discovered that many loyal patrons of Young's Lobster Pound have never made it into Downtown Belfast. Why not hop across the bay and grab an ice-cream or a cold beer and browse Belfast's quirky, independent businesses?
There is more to Belfast than meets the eye. Enjoy both sides of the bay and get on the water all in one with 'The Back and Forth'.
“Every year many visitors to Young’s lobster pound never make it into Downtown Belfast! Now they have a perfect way to visit our beautifully unique city”
Belfast City Mayor - Samantha Paradis
