Rosslare Ferry Port Information

About The Port

Rosslare is one of the busiest and most popular ports in the Republic of Ireland. It connects Ireland with Wales, France & Spain with up to 34 sailings per week, depending on the time of year. Some of the destinations include Fishguard, Pembroke, Bilbao and Cherbourg.

Rosslare has a relatively small history. First developed in 1906 by Great Western Railway to accommodate steam ferries, the harbour continued to grow and is now an extremely well-established EuroPort. As well as the ferry services, Rosslare plays an important role for freight transport for Ireland in Europe.

Brittany Ferries, Stena Line and Irish Ferries all operate out of the port. Despite the 3 different operators, there is currently just 1 ferry terminal.
