For the adventurous there are plenty of water activities such as diving, kayaking, surfing, sailing and kite-surfing. For those who like to keep their feet dry, there’s hill walking or cycling in the Comeragh Mountains while the River Blackwater boasts some of the best game fishing in Ireland.

There’s also an excellent choice of world-class visitor attractions from the spectacular Copper Coast Geopark to the Waterford Museum of Treasures and the Waterford Crystal Centre, renowned the world over for the beauty and craftsmanship of its master glass cutters.

Waterford City is the perfect blend of ancient and modern. Its collection of pubs, gourmet restaurants and excellent shops co-exist with medieval city walls, quaintly cobbled back streets and the grandeur of historic buildings like Reginald’s Tower, still standing proud after more than a thousand years.
