    Easy to get to (private land!) but be very careful of the cliffs with children.

    If you like walking along cliff edges and dangerous tracks this is worth doing. The statue was to send ships to Waterford rather than accidentally sailing onto the shallow seas at Tramore. There's a very similar statue in Sligo I think. I'm not quite sure where I remember seeing it

    There is no way to actually get there unless you walk through private, fenced off fields.

    Arrived under it in kayaks...enquire locally about kayak rental during summer, better to pop out when it's flat calm, there's good strong swell even in calm weather, be careful of going into caves(my pal got his helmet stuck in the cave roof, he unclipped his helmet so he could free his body as the sea left the cave). Sea's not warm, not bitter, during June July Aug Sept.
