Crystal County

Hugging the southern coast of the country, County Waterford supports a wild coastline, towering mountains, and long rivers. Its volcanic coastline has birthed dozens of beaches, although the Atlantic can make for a cold swim. A part of this shoreline, the Copper Coast, has been recognized as a UNESCO Geopark because of its geological importance, tracing remnants of volcanic activity during the Paleozoic Era and evidence of the last ice age. Home to a Gaeltacht, or Irish-speaking region, the county welcomes visitors with traditional Irish hospitality in the native tongue. County Waterford is in Province of Munster.
