The
island of Ireland is 300 miles/450 km long and 190 miles/300 km wide
and covers approximately 32,600 sq. miles/84,500 sq. km. Ireland is
divided into four provinces - Ulster, Munster, Leinster and
Connaught and into 32 counties. The Republic of Ireland consists of
26 counties and Northern Ireland consists of 6 counties.
Ireland is on
Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) and in accordance with daylight saving,
clocks are put forward one hour mid-March and back one hour at the
end of October. During summer it stays light until as late as
11.00pm but by mid-December it can be dark by 4.00pm.
The
Republic of Ireland is a country waiting to be discovered. The
island lies in the north Atlantic Ocean and is separated from
Britain by the Irish Sea to the east - Scotland is just 20 miles
away at one point.
Ireland has a temperate climate, due to mild southwesterly winds and
the Gulf Stream. Summers are warm, while temperatures during winter
are much cooler. Spring and autumn in Ireland are very mild and rain
falls all year. For this reason, you'll need to take lightweights
during summer with warmer medium weights for the winter, while
rainwear is a necessity throughout the year.
In
spite of its size, Ireland has plenty of things to do - play a round
of golf on one of its world-renowned courses, fish in its plentiful
waters or walk the hills and mountains, among hundreds of different
activities you'll find available to you.
Ireland also offers a fascinating range of accommodation -
experience the Irish royal treatment in an old castle, or receive
the warm family welcome in an Irish guesthouse or B&B. Perhaps you
wish to lavish in a luxurious hotel, or escape to your own Irish
cottage? Wherever you want to stay, and whatever your budget, you
will find it there. |
