Tramore is one of the most popular destinations for family holidays in the South East corner of Ireland, 7 miles from Waterford City. A wonderful 3 mile beach with its 30 metre high sand dunes also helps to make Tramore the popular destination that it is. Part of the seafront is taken up by a 50 acre amusement park, a miniture railway and a boating lake. There are three main festivals in Tramore each year. They are the Tra-Fest Music Festival in July, the Tramore Racing Festival in August and the Carlsburg Tramore Golf Classic in September.
