The Sunny Southeast

Counties Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, and Carlow make up the area which is known as Ireland's "Sunny Southeast". County Wexford boasts some of Ireland's longest and best beaches and many visit them in the summer months. During the 1798 rebellion many battles were fought in County Wexford including defeat at Vinegar Hill, outside Enniscorthy.

County Carlow, one of Ireland's smallest counties, remains a pleasant and quiet place. Here Carlow Castle and the Carlow museum may be seen.

Kilkenny City today is a popular destination for those interested in culture and the Arts. An impressive castle, Kilkenny Castle is a focal point for visitors to the city. Waterford City, Ireland's oldest city and the largest in the southeast, is an ideal place for shopping and nightlife.
