Cork

Destination Guide: Major Cities and Counties of Ireland

Cork

The County of Cork is washed by the warm Gulf Stream and the mild moist south winds, helping palm trees and bamboo flourish. It is the most favored corner of Ireland: here spring begins.

Cork is the largest of all the Irish counties, and in many ways the most varied. Rich farmlands and river valleys contrast with the wild sandstone hills of the west. Above all there is the magnificent coastline, scooped and fretted by the Atlantic into great bays and secret coves, strewn with rocky headlands and long soft golden strands.

Its villages and resorts are mostly unsophisticated, but lively and friendly in their own special fashion, and very welcoming to strangers who come to join in the fun.

Visit Cork City with its remarkable charm, bumpy bridges, hilly streets, and distinctive Continental air. Kinsale is a popular centre for yachting, sea angling and gourmet eating. Explore North Cork towns & villages such as Mallow and Fermoy, which are dominated by the majestic Blackwater River. Meander through the coastal towns of East Cork dotted along Cork Harbor, the second largest natural harbor in the world. The colorful towns & villages of West Cork have an atmosphere and an environment that is unique and special.
