About Wales
Wales is one of the four constituent countries of the United Kingdom and shares a land border only with England. The largest city and home of the devolved Welsh Assembly is Cardiff.
There are four ports in Wales that handle commercial vehicle ferry services and each one is a gateway to the Republic of Ireland. Holyhead, on Anglesey, was the original departure point for stage carriages travelling on the route from London to Dublin. There are still regular departures from Holyhead to both Dublin Port and nearby Dun Daoghaire.
Further south, Stena Line operates a twice daily service between Fishguard and Rosslare in County Wexford, whilst Irish Ferries also operates a twice daily service into Rosslare but from Pembroke Dock. Finally, there are thrice weekly departures in each direction on the Fastnet Line service connecting Swansea with Cork, Ireland's second largest city.
Most ferries serving Wales carry a combination of both tourist and freight traffic but some high speed craft carry tourist vehicles and small freight vehicles only.
