Creator's Key Takeaways

we had a lot planned well in our minds we did the first thing we did is we walked towards the Titanic experience

we were a little bit disappointed yeah so if you want to go to the Titanic experience in Cove which is what we really wanted to do get there early because they do book up time slots

we thoroughly enjoyed our time on Spike Island it was full of History really interesting just finding out about the reasons why the fort was created by the British to prevent the the French from invading well worth the €24 each we paid

sailway from Cove was brilliant they had a band playing there was lots and lots of locals all stood there waving and cheering us as we sailed away away it was fantastic really good sway

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Get to the Titanic Experience in Cobh early because time slots book up quickly.
βœ“When visiting Spike Island, be prepared for an uphill walk and consider mobility issues.
βœ“Sit outside on the boat to Spike Island for fantastic views, but be aware it can be windy and cold.

YouTube Video Description↓

Cobh, Ireland was our second port during our Island Princess Iceland and Greenland cruise. This was our second time visiting the town of Cobh in 2023. We had planned to visit the Titanic Museum in the morning and Spike Island in the afternoon, however, things did not go as planned. Back on Island Princess we enjoyed some of the varied food offerings available onboard. In the Princess Theater there was a comedy ventriloquist, Phil Hughes and in the Explorer's Lounge it was the final auditions for Voice of the Ocean.
