Wexford Harbour (Irish: Loch Garman) in County Wexford, Ireland is the natural harbour at the mouth of the River Slaney. In earlier times, the area occupied by the harbour was considerably larger than it is today, up to ten miles (16 km) wide at its widest point, with large mud flats on both sides. These were known as the North Slob and the South Slob from the Irish word slab, meaning mud. It contained several islands, among which the large island of Beggerin was known to be a safe refuge for early Christian settlements.

  • وكسفورد هاربور (بالأيرلندية: Loch Garman) في مقاطعة ويكسفورد، أيرلندا هو ميناء طبيعي عند مصب نهر سلاني. فيما مضى، كانت المنطقة التي يشغلها الميناء أكبر بكثير مما هي عليه اليوم، وتصل إلى عرض عشرة أميال (16 كم) في أوسع نقطة، مع مسطحات الطين الكبيرة على كلا الجانبين. وتعرف هذه باسم سلوب الشمالية وسلوب الجنوبية من الكلمة الايرلندية سلاب-slab، وهذا يعني الطين. كانت تحتوي على عدة جزر، وكانت جزيرة بيجيرين الكبيرة معروفة بأنها ملاذ آمن للمستوطنات المسيحية المبكرة.

  • De haven van Wexford (Engels: Wexford Harbour; Iers: Loch Garman) is de natuurlijke haven bij de stad Wexford, gevormd door het estuarium van de Slaney. Vanaf de 17e eeuw was dit een belangrijke handels- en vissershaven. In de 19e eeuw werden vanaf beide oevers dijken aangelegd en aan inpoldering gedaan. Dit verkleinde de haven maar gaf ook aanleiding tot verzanding van de havengeul.Daardoor is de haven enkel nog geschikt voor plezierjachten en kleine vissersboten. (nl)

El estuario originalmente tenía diez millas de ancho en su punto más amplio, con grandes llanuras de lodo en ambos lados. Se conocen como el y el de la palabra irlandesa slab, que significa lodo. Los vikingos, cuando fundaron la ciudad de Wexford, la llamaron Waes Fjord, lo que significa "ensenada de marismas" y el nombre moderno proviene de esto. (es)
