Regatta 2012


Well the Regatta is almost upon us, with one day to go to the opening ceremony tomorrow night. Thankfully, the weather looks to be alright. In fact, Met Eireann are giving quite a good forecast for this weekend. Its just in time too.....especially after suffering one of the worst summer storms in many years, just yesterday. What a difference a week makes; we've gone from one of the best days this summer last Friday to, definitely, the worst summer's day in many a year this Wednesday. Well that's behind us now and with fair winds, warm temps, and clear skies forecast, conditions we'll be back to normal for the yachting, rowing and water based activities planned for this weekend. A full programme of events are scheduled to start tomorrow with Saturday and Sunday the busier of the days. Cobh Peoples Regatta website is full of information and detail as to what is going on. Check it out here, Cobh People's Regatta, it's worth a look!!!

Definitely, the highlight of the weekend are the fireworks on Sunday night. This is phenomenally popular with the kids and families of all ages and sizesgather early in the evening to commandeer the best viewing sites. One of the best spots, of course, is the roof garden of the Commodore Hotel. Easy access is available to all residents and luckily enough we still have some accommodation left this Sunday night. If you'd fancy coming to Cobh then give us a ring and ask for Mary in reservations on 021-4811277. Alternatively, you can book online on here. However, best to give Mary a buzz....tell her we sent you!!!
