The waters around the mouth of Waterford Harbour are known locally as the Graveyard of a Thousand Ships.
The light at Hook Head has the distinction of being the worlds oldest operational lighthouse. Before the tower was built in 1172, monks had kept an open fire burning on the cliff top for several hundred years.
