Things to do in Wexford

Located in County Wexford on Ireland’s south eastern coast, this vibrant corner of the country is known as the Sunny South East, celebrated for its long sunshine hours and mild coastal climate. Set along the estuary of the River Slaney near the harbour, the region blends seaside charm with rich heritage and striking natural beauty.

Here, sandy beaches stretch for miles, dramatic coastal scenery meets rolling countryside and colourful towns are filled with character. From outdoor adventures and family attractions to festivals, arts and cultural events throughout the year, there is always something to experience.

During your stay at the 4 star Riverside Park Hotel, take time to explore by day and return to comfort in the evening. Unwind in our leisure facilities including the swimming pool, sauna, steam room and gym, then sink into cosy pillow topped beds after a day well spent.

Described by Lonely Planet as a centre for opera and art, this unique destination pairs a beach fringed coastline with a rural hinterland dotted with charming villages and traditional thatched cottages, offering a balance of culture, landscape and laid back coastal living.
