Staying for a few day on the southwest coast of Ireland at Youghal, County Cork, my wife Liz and I took the opportunity to stroll around this somewhat unusual seaside town.
Partly a working harbour town, and partly a seaside resort, Youghal seemed to me to have almost a split personality, and we made sure we experienced both halves.
Youghal harbour proved to be an interesting place, with a few fishing vessels working out of its small concrete piers, and smaller craft moored to floating buoys going up and down with the tide.
Tied up right at the end of the harbour wall was this working fishing boat, with its blue painted hull and orange fender looking very attactive in the late afternoon sun.
