and Dungarvan Harbour...
Six miles west of the friendly
town of Dún Garbhán (Dun
garvan) and overlooking
Dungarvan Harbour and
Muggort's Bay lies the small
coastal Gaeltacht area of
Waterford. Nestling against
the backdrop of the lovely
Comeragh Mountains this
Gaeltacht region embraces the
Parish of Rinn ó gCuanach
(Ring) and An Sean Phobal
(Old Parish). It is a world
apart, in its welcoming people
its scenery, its landscapes,
seascapes and above all its
cultural vitality. The love of
Irish music, song, dance and
language is infectious in An
Rinn. A spontaneous desire to
share tradition with the visitor
can erupt at any time in any of
the welcoming local
hostelries. An Rinn is home to
founding members of the
internationally acclaimed Irish
Music Group, Danú and world
famous singer, writer and Irish
folklorist Liam Clancy.
