Port of Tyne, International Passenger Terminal, Cobledene, North Shields, Tyne & Wear, NE29 6EE
Secure parking is available at the Port of Tyne’s International Passenger Terminal, just a short walk from both the ferry and cruise check-in areas. Clearly signposted on arrival, the car park offers a safe and convenient place to leave your vehicle while you travel. Parking cannot be booked directly with the Port of Tyne; instead, guests are advised to arrange it through their cruise line or booking agent. Pre-booking is strongly recommended, as spaces are limited and subject to availability. Once parked, it’s only a few minutes’ walk to the terminal, ensuring a smooth and stress-free start to your journey.
The Port of Tyne International Passenger Terminal in North Shields is well signposted and straightforward to reach by car. From the north, take the A19 southbound and follow signs for the Tyne Tunnel. Once through the tunnel, exit onto the A187 towards North Shields and continue to follow the brown signs for the Ferry Terminal and Cruise Terminal. From the south, travel north on the A19, pass through the Tyne Tunnel and take the A187 exit, where the cruise terminal signs will guide you the rest of the way. If you are approaching from the west, use the A69 or A1(M) to join the A19, then continue through the Tyne Tunnel before following the same directions. On arrival in North Shields, the terminal and on-site car park are clearly marked, making the final part of your journey simple and stress-free.
