information on Baltimore

Cork Swansea Ferry

 

The villages of West Cork love a party but Baltimore and the Islands have more festivals than anywhere else. We have so much to celebrate!

The rich Heritage of the Baltimore area of West Cork is explored in April. Then the tradition of boatbuilding industry in Baltimore, Ireland, is remembered at the Wooden Boat Festival and the facts and myths of the O'Driscoll clan are celebrated every June. Homage is paid to the bounty of the sea during the Baltimore Seafood Festival; fiddle music fills the square in May; stories are told on Cape Clear in September. There are fish to be caught during the Baltimore Sea-angling Festival and races to be won at Baltimore Regatta. Cape Clear Regatta, Sherkin Regatta, anyone getting tired?

Check with the pubs and hotels for music listings during the summer.
