About the Republic of Ireland
The island of Ireland lies to the west of Great Britain, separated by the Irish Sea. The island is divided between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland, the latter covering less than 20% of the island. The Republic of Ireland was official formed in 1922. The capital city is Dublin and the population stands at just over 4.5M.
Regular ferry services operate to the UK and France from four Irish ports; Dublin, Dun Laoghaire, Rosslare and Cork.
Most ferries serving the Republic of Ireland carry a combination of both tourist and freight traffic but some high speed craft carry tourist vehicles and small freight vehicles only.
