About Us

Nestled on the picturesque Cork Harbour, Cobh, formerly Queenstown, is famously known as the Titanic’s final port of call. On April 11, 1912, the mighty ship stopped here to pick up passengers and mail before beginning its ill-fated voyage across the Atlantic. Walking along the charming quays, you can imagine the excitement and farewells of that day.

Today, Cobh honours its maritime history with the Titanic Experience, an interactive museum that tells the stories of those who boarded here, along with several memorials that pay tribute to the passengers. Beyond its historic significance, the town itself is a delightful blend of colourful streets, harbour views, and a welcoming coastal atmosphere, making it a must-visit for history lovers and sea lovers alike.

Just a short ferry ride from Cobh, Spike Island is a fascinating blend of natural beauty and history. Often called “Ireland’s Alcatraz,” it has served as a monastery, fortress, prison, and military base over the centuries.

On a guided tour, visitors can explore the main fort, prison cells, and ramparts while learning about the island’s dramatic past through stories, exhibits, and interactive displays. The views of Cork Harbour and the surrounding coastline are breathtaking, making it as scenic as it is historic. Tours are suitable for families, history enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to experience Ireland’s rich maritime heritage firsthand.
