The port of Waterford is in the south of the Emerald Isle. Two cathedrals, various exhibitions at the town hall and interesting glassworks await visitors to this small Irish town.

Cobh is one of the islands in the harbour of Cork. Connected to the mainland by a causeway, it represents an important part of Irish history. It was from there that two and a half million of the six million Irish emigrants who were forced away during the potato famine of 1848 to 1850 left from. Only a few returned. But Cobh was also the port for the rich - this was the Titanic's last port of call before she set off across the Atlantic to her fate. Following a visit by the Queen in 1849, Cobh was re-named "Queenstown" but got its old name back in 1921. Sights include St. Coleman's cathedral, Queenstown/Cobh Museum, the Wildlife Park, the Botanic Gardens and the Golf Club.

Located in southeastern Ireland, the small town of Bantry significates an important part of County Cork’s economy. Next to tourism, fishing remained one of the biggest industries. Historical times still have a strong impact on Bantry’s atmosphere. One of the most famous buildings is a stately home called Bantry House & Garden. Visitors can enjoy a tea in the ancient tea room or have a stroll through the beautiful garden. The town centre including Wolfe Town Square is worth a visit as well. In addition to the architectonic sights tourists and locals like to explore the natural monument of Whiddy Island.
