New Ross, Ireland

A quiet market town on the River Barrow turns out to be the ancestral home of an American dynasty, the Kennedy Homestead at nearby Dunganstown still farmed by the family's Irish cousins, and well worth the short drive. The full-scale replica of the Dunbrody famine ship tells the harder side of that same story, of the millions who left this stretch of coast for America in the 1840s. Golf links wind along the Wexford coast nearby, while the Saltee Islands just offshore hold one of Ireland's great seabird colonies. A small, unassuming port with an outsized story to tell.

At SeaDream, our experience was great in the lap of nature (at sea). The hospitality, courtesy and responsibility was at its height... flowing throughout the voyage. Really a memorable experience!! Mitu & Harjit S.India
The crew was fabulous, we were treated like kings & queens, very personal, like no other experience we've ever had. See you next year and every year thereafter. Mr & Mrs AmbroseTexas

...We had a great time-best ever, and will be coming back...Charlie and I feel like we've been yachting with our "best friends". Hard to believe we didn't know anyone on the yacht 8 days ago-now we've met new traveling friends for the years to come. Mr & Mrs HoganWashington
