Cork airport is 15-20 minutes drive from the airport and
one would expect to pay not more than £20 / €25 for a taxi fare. There are always
plenty of taxis at the airport. There is no direct bus route to Crosshaven from the
airport. (By bus you'd need to go from the airport to Cork city bus depot (about £3 /
€5) and then from there to Crosshaven (about £2.30 / €5)). Crosshaven village
has a population of a little over 1300 people but has seven pubs and four restaurants
(RCYC, The Schooner, Cronins & The Anchor).
The GSE-LSUG meeting on 22 September will be held in the RCYC (Royal
Cork Yacht Club) in Crosshaven village. You'll find info on the RCYC and the recent
Ford-Cork-Week on the internet www.royalcork.com.
