Youghal holiday apartment details
Location
You simply coudn't be closer to the sea and old walled town of Youghal, than here. In front of the complex is the River Blackwater as it gracefully enters the atlantic. Over a mile across in parts its a huge span of open water, backed by the lush green of the Waterford countryside, and beyond to the mountains.
And yet behind the complex is the old town of Youghal, with is shops, cafes, restaurants, pubs and historic sights within yards. The nearest beach is 100 yards, although the larger beaches are between 5 and 15 minutes on foot, 2 minutes in the car. The stroll along the promenade, out towards the main strand beach, (passing the lighthouse on your left, with glorious views over the bay), is a favourite with all visitors, at all times of day and in the evening.
Facilities
Harvey's Waterfront is a newly built complex of 34 lovely 2 and 3 bedroom apartment suites. Built to high standards with all of your comforts taken care of, you'll find that they are tastefully decorated out and equipped to the highest standards. Each suite enjoys spectacular views and has a large balcony with stunning views.
There is an enclosed coutyard for parking, and on site management to sort out any issues.
The area and activities
There's so much to do and see, its not possible to list it all here. You can find out much on the Irish Riviera website. or you can visit the main tourist office that is just 100 yards from the complex.
Some of the more popular activities are:
Walking
The most popular route is the stroll along the promenade from the Green park, past the lighthouse and on to the Strand. With an uninterrupted sea view all the way, its a must for all visitors. There are 3 viewing points with seats - and you never know, you might just catch a glimpse of the dolphins that regularly fish in the river mouth, or a seal.
The history walk through Youghal leaves the Tourist Office at 10.30 daily. Its a historic stroll through time, well worth your time.
Fishing
The Blackwater is Ireland's second largest river and as a large mature river. This provides a unique haven for salmon and seatrout. It was declared Ireland's most prolific salmon river in 1998.
Youghal bay is a sea fishing paradise. Fishing trips, by boat, out in the bay are available throughout the summer months.
Golf
Youghal is a perfect base for the keen golfer, as this quarter of Ireland hosts a magnificent selection of 40 parkland and coastal golf courses. You could start at Youghal's own championship course, with its spectacular setting on the cliffs overlooking the town and bay. Within a hour drive there are a string of other golf delights including Fota Island and the Old Head of Kinsale, arguably Irelands most exciting new course. Other courses include Lee Valley, Midleton, Charleville and West Waterford just to name a few.
For aspiring golfers, there is a lovely pitch and putt course set just behind the main Strand beach.
Boating
New for 2004 are candian canoes for hire, allowing easy access for all to the harbour areas, the estuary and river basin. There will also be organised trips up the river in massive 30 man canoes !
