Moving around in Ireland - transportation
Air transportation in Ireland, just as in all European countries is at a very high standard. In total, ten large airports that conduct international flights operate successfully in the country. There are also thirty small airfields at the least. The main air harbor as expected is located in Dublin, the capital of the country. The airport terminals are clean and comfortable. Within their territory, any traveler will find for himself absolutely everything that he or she needs. Thanks to the open access to the “big” water body, water transportation in Ireland has also become very popular. With the help of ferry crossings, you can not only travel along the coast, but also travel to England, France and some islands. The most important seaport is also in Dublin. All year round, there are various cruise ships and boats on the coast of Ireland that allow travelers to enjoy the delightful scenery and sea air. They serve rather as an attraction, than as a means of transportation. It is worth noting that some owners of sea ships offer tourists the opportunity to rent barges and boats and independently travel along the coast.
