Irish Sea & St George's Channel
Between Ireland and Wales – from Dublin Bay to Cork Harbour

The Irish Sea & St George's Channel form the impressive backdrop to this sailing trip with the Eye of the Wind. From Dublin, the voyage leads south along the Irish coast to Cork. The captain sets the course and possible stopovers according to wind and weather, so each trip can take its own course.

Depending on conditions, various harbours may be called at as stopovers. Wicklow offers an appealing contrast between the coast and the nearby Wicklow Mountains; in the town, historic buildings recall Ireland's eventful past. In Arklow, at the mouth of the Avoca River, maritime tradition and the proximity of green river valleys shape your stay. Wexford tempts with its medieval townscape and surroundings known for their wetlands and birdlife. A possible detour to Kilmore Quay leads to a charming fishing harbour with thatched houses; off the coast lie the Saltee Islands, an important refuge for seabirds.

Further west, Waterford might be on the programme. The town combines a long history reaching back to the Viking Age with the landscape of the broad estuary. Youghal delights with its historic old town, long sandy beach and the nature of the Blackwater Estuary. Just before Cork, Kinsale offers a particularly lovely harbour, colourful streets and maritime history – complemented by coastal views and nearby Charles Fort.

In Cobh, then called Queenstown, the Titanic made her last port call in 1912 before crossing the Atlantic. The Titanic Experience Cobh recalls this stop and the ship's story in a historic White Star Line building.

On board, fellow travellers can help with the sailing manoeuvres and steer the ship themselves under guidance. Whether setting the sails, working the lines or at the helm, the voyage becomes an active experience. Between possible shore excursions, there is time to enjoy the view from deck and to see Ireland's coast from a very special perspective.

The times and harbours mentioned are intended as an example itinerary and are not binding. The route described here may change at short notice due to prevailing wind and weather conditions. The ship's command decides on stopovers and the course of the voyage – whenever possible also taking your wishes into account. This way you experience the trip as a pleasant mix of adventure and comfort, of getting involved and simply enjoying.
