TRAVEL TO THE Cork CRUISE TERMINAL

How to reach the port by car:

When heading towards Cork aim for the Dunkettle Interchange from all directions of travel.
Once at the Dunkettle head East Bound following signs for Waterford or Midleton you will join the N25 East Bound. At the junction for Cobh kleave N25 East Bound and follow signs for Cobh. Once entering Cobh along the main road on the righthand side you will see Cobh Cruise Terminal / the ship. Also for Satnav purposes Cobh train Station can be useful as the train station is next to the cruise terminal.

Cobh Train Station is situated next to Cobh Cruise Terminal. On exiting the train station take a right, then right again this will bring you to the front gate which is access into Cobh Cruise Terminal. If there is a ship in and the pier is manned there is no need to walk around as the gate from the station direct to the pier will be open.

Iris Rail

Cobh Cruise Terminal is Approx. 40 minuets by road (Subject to traffic) from Cork International Airport.
Taxi’s are readily available at the airport as is car hire, we would suggest these methods as no direct public transport.
If you prefer public transportation then this would require first the bus from airport arrivals (signed for City Centre) to the train station, followed by the Cobh train, or alternatively the same bus from the airport to the city, followed by the “Cobh Connect” bus from the city to Cobh.
