The 'Celebrity Silhouette' cruise ship with almost 3,000 passengers has arrived in Waterford.
It is docked in Dunmore East Harbour for most of today (Friday) and the 2,935 passengers on board have the opportunity to visit local attractions.
It's one of the largest cruise ships to visit the area this summer and already visited Dunmore East earlier this year
