Join us on a cruise of Cork Harbour, the world's second-largest natural harbour, while learning about its history.

Cork Harbour Boat Cruise

We’ll meet at Custom House Quay in Cork City at the scheduled time, where the boat will be ready for boarding. Cork Harbour, located at the mouth of the River Lee, is renowned for its vast size.

Our journey begins on the Cailín Óir ferry, which provides 360-degree views from the top deck. We will appreciate the harbour's features, including islands, colorful houses, and views of Cork City.

During the tour, we will explore the harbour's significant history, noting that many Irish emigrants left through it during the Great Famine, and the RMS Titanic anchored here before its final voyage.

As we navigate up the River Lee and through the Lough, we will see local villages such as Passage West, Monkstown, and Ringaskiddy, alongside landmarks like Blackrock Castle, a former coastal defense now hosting an observatory and visitor center.

Next, we will pass Haulbowline Island, a site of military significance since 1602 and the birthplace of the Royal Cork Yacht Club.

We will also view Fota Island, known for its wildlife park and historical Fota House and Gardens.

As the cruise concludes after 2 hours, we will return to Custom House Quay. Slán!
