The song: 'Off Down To Youghal We Go' celebrates the famed seaside town of Youghal in east Cork, Ireland - a Mecca for generations of Corkonians who travelled there by train in their droves in the summertime.
The title of the song: 'Off Down To Youghal We Go' is a phrase that's often been used down through the years by many a Corkonian.
Youghal in County Cork is one of Ireland's famed beaches. Stretching for miles, it's easy to see what attracts people to this heavenly place.
In 1954, Hollywood came to town when John Huston, Gregory Peck and their Moby Dick film put this east Cork seaside resort on the world map. From then on it's been a favourite holiday spot with people travelling from abroad and from the four corners of Ireland, most especially native Corkonians who made their weekly
pilgrimage there in their droves when summer arrived.
In the 50s, 60s and 70s trains and cars jam-packed with families headed off down to Youghal and filled the beach to overflowing. Children with buckets and shovels built billy-billy baker castles in the sand and splashed and paddled in the water with their tubes and beach balls while their parents looked on, taking a well-deserved rest as they soaked up the Caribbean sunshine, embraced by the freshness of the warm, salty breeze billowing in from the sea.
Others liked to take a leisurely stroll through the ancient town and view its historic elegant buildings and quaint streets, lanes and quays which featured in the Hollywood movie, while fishing and boating were other popular pursuits. For the romantics at heart, the Showboat and Strand Palace Ballrooms were a big attraction during those years as was the very popular Redbarn Ballroom which was graced with international superstars of the day. And not forgetting Perks Funfair - a magical place for us kids who never wanted to go home.
Today, Youghal still retains its popularity for holiday makers and day trippers with its feast of summer entertainment which includes festivals such as the Moby Dick, Queen of the Sea, Food and Mackerel and the Medieval Festival.
