In past centuries the British Navy long recognised its importance and its ability to provide protection and it created an impregnable series of forts around the entrance making it one of the most important naval bases and ports on the west of Europe. Dotted around it are towns and villages, the best known are historic Cobh, Crosshaven, Monkstown and Passage.
It is a large natural harbour extending from Cork city to the Atlantic Ocean at Roches Point. Cork Harbour is a beautiful place and home to tens of thousands of people.
