Cork Port Ferry Overview
Cork has always been an important seaport. It began on an island in the swampy estuary of the River Lee, and gradually climbed up the steep banks on either side. Today the river flows through Cork city in two main channels, so that you find yourself constantly crossing bridges.
Cork Ferry port is situated at Ringaskiddy, 16 km SE via the N28. A direct sea link is available to Roscoff in France with Brittany Ferries. A long-established link with Swansea in Wales has recently been restarted by ferry operator, Fastnet Line. A connecting bus service is available from the ferryport to the city centre. Plans for a water taxi service are being finalised to provide traffic free connections for both commuters and tourists alike.
Cork is a very important sea port in Ireland, offering shortest and fastest ferry route to the continent from the Irish Republic. Cork Ferry Port is located in the village of Ringaskiddy, 12 miles south of Cork city centre. Cork ferries enjoy the use of one of the largest natural harbours in the world. The modern ferry port facilities have been developed along the deep waters of the River Lee. |
