Wexford Harbor

To the east of the town of Wexford extends the great expanse of Wexford Harbor. On the north side is a wildfowl reserve (entrance from the R741), notable particularly for the great numbers of lesser white-fronted geese which winter there every year; there are also many swans. For the benefit of visitors there is a parking lot, screened observation hides, an observation tower and nearby a collection displaying the many species of bird which frequent the reserve.
