Cork Harbour is one of the finest natural harbours in the world (said to be the second largest natural harbour on the planet) offering a wide variety of watersports. Its many islands and tranquil river estuaries, prisons, forts, pretty towns & scenic coves, beaches and bays as well as incredible marine and bird life make for a fascinating environment waiting to be discovered. As you leave the harbour the coastline becomes even more dramatic having been pounded for millenia by the relentless Atlantic Ocean. There are a number of very reputable companies that operate private tours for groups and here are a few of them.
