The sun on Cobh Cathedral
The cathedral in Cobh is really impressive. It’s set on a hill overlooking the town, so when I saw the rays of the setting sun light up the front of the building, I had to record the moment in a photo.
The ruins of Heartbreak Pier in Cobh
The remains of the pier where people boarded boats to take them to the Titanic and other ships. 123 people left Cobh here to board the Titanic that was moored off Roche’s Point, at the mouth of the harbour. In March 2018, plans were approved for an observation walkway and ticket kiosk, but thankfully they…
Qween at the Regatta
Qween rocked Cobh on Sunday night, the last night of the Cobh People’s Regatta 2023. They’re an outstanding Queen tribute band, and they played all the hits, and soon had everyone singing along, dancing and cheering to the music. A short break in the middle of the set was required for the fireworks at 10pm,…
The fireworks of Cobh People’s Regatta 2023
The Cobh People’s Regatta took place last weekend and the town was hopping. We enjoyed the live music, getting up close to the stage to watch Qween rock the place. Shortly after 10pm, the fireworks went off, and we rushed over to the water’s edge by the pier to watch the spectacle. I didn’t have…

Fireworks At Cobh People’s Regatta 2022
I barely made it to Cobh on Sunday night to photograph the fireworks display that started promptly at 10pm. On the way there, the cloudy sky was lit up by peals of thunder and flashes of lightning. Rain fell in light spatters on the car, and I’m told there was a downpour just before I…

Summer Rain in Cobh
The rain pours down on Cobh on a dreary Sunday afternoon recently.
The Jewel of the Seas in Cobh
The Jewel of the Seas, a gigantic cruise liner operated by Royal Caribbean left Cobh in Co Cork yesterday. The Cobh Confraternity Band played music while she undocked and set off. Looking up at this enormous ship makes you feel like insignificant. The decks extend up into the sky and she left the harbour quickly…
Fireworks Over Cobh
Fireworks lit the sky over Cobh last night as part of the St. Patrick’s Day festivities. I’m glad Henry heard about the event as I had no idea it was on!
