What Wikivoyage says about moving around

- Get in There are no through-buses to Ireland from Great Britain or the continent: change in London for the ferry ports.
- Get in Buses run from Rosslare ferry harbour via Wexford, Waterford, Dungarvan and Youghal to Cork, and continue to Kerry.
- Get in Summer ferries from Roscoff and Santander sail to Cork, landing at Ringaskiddy 7 km south of the city.
- Get around But they also have long day trips out to far-flung spots like Mizen Head and Ring of Kerry, impractical to reach without your own car.
