On Thursday morning, the 11th April 1912 two paddle steamers berthed patiently alongside the White Star Line Pier in Cobh while passengers embarked and mail was loaded.
The PS Ireland and the PS America slipped and proceeded with the last 123 passengers bound for Titanic whom they would rendevous with as the great ship arrived at the mouth of Cork harbour. Along the way, the vessels sailed upriver towards the railway station to pick up more mail from the mail train. From there they left to follow the natural deepwater channel to travel the 4 miles out towards Roches Point and their tragic destiny with Titanic.
Sail from Kennedy Pier to lay off the original White Star Line terminal, follow the route
Titanic tenders took from there to the railway station and, finally, along the natural
channel to where Titanic would arrive, take in the views that they did and listen
to the story of their journey related by experienced Titanic Trail Guides.
Departures, in season, every day at 1pm from Kennedy Pier, Cobh.
