Take the M11 and N11 through Wicklow, then local roads east for a 90-minute drive past the Wicklow Mountains. From Cork, use the N25 through Waterford, then head north via R772.

The town's main draw is Pirates Cove Adventure Park, featuring a replica pirate ship that kids can board and explore, making it a popular family destination since the 1980s.
