Titanic Tales















The O'Connell family from Manchester, New Hampshire, USA pictured yesterday at the very spot that the Titanic anchored. The O'Connell's took advantage of the settled weather to take a boat trip to the Harbour mouth to lay some flowers and say a few prayers as their commemoration towards those who lost their lives in the Titanic tragedy.

Very shortly visitors to Cobh will be able to avail of the opportunity to travel to this anchorage site. Dr. Michael Martin will shortly be launching a water-borne version of the Titanic Trail which will involve taking a boat trip to the very site that the Titanic anchored. This will be a guided trip with full commentary from Dr. Martin for the duration of the boat journey. Dr. Martin is the creator of the Titanic Trail in Cobh and is well known internationally as an expert on the Titanic.


The Commodore Hotel has teamed up with Dr. Martin to offer a package to visitors to Cobh which will allow participants to retrace the footsteps of those passengers who embarked on Titanic from Cobh. These 2 and 3 night packages incorporate a guided walk on the Titanic Trail, entry to the newly opened Titanic Experience, and entry into Cobh the Queenstown Story.
