About Cork

Cork is Ireland's second largest city, with a population of about 300,000 people. It's a port city on the southern coast of the country and has major air, rail, road and some sea links.

In this section you'll find information on how to get to Cork, the most convenient way of getting around the city and information on accommodation within the city centre.

The main tourist office in the city is on the Grand Parade, where you'll find information and advice about most aspects of your visit.

While you're visiting us, you might be interested in finding out more about the history and historic sites of the city. Cork Walks is a series of three Heritage-related walking trails in the city centre, designed and funded by Cork City Council in conjunction with the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport. (A fourth trail will be launched later this year.)

These walking trails link places and buildings of heritage interest and provide an attractive and enjoyable experience to tourists and locals alike.
