You can enjoy a leisurely stroll along the quays among the beautiful fishing boats. You can taste locally caught fresh fish and seafood in many restaurants in Wexford or savour a pint of Guinness to the sounds of a live traditional music session in any number of the town's pubs.
Wexford people are believed to be one of the friendliest in Ireland. You will soon discover the truth in this while practising your English talking to locals. Wexford people enjoy making new friends and are curious to find out about new people and life in your country. The more you talk, the better your English, so don't be shy!
