Famous for its connections with Waterford Crystal, manufactured in
the city centre, Waterford is the capital of the south-east region of
Ireland. As a major city it benefits from good transport links making
it the perfect base to explore the area. The marina, with 100 fully
serviced berths, is located on the banks of the River Suir, in the
heart of this historic Viking city dating back to the ninth century.
Waterford boasts an array of summer festivals, while fine dining and
nightlife venues are all within a short walking distance.
http://www.waterfordcouncil.ie/departments/roads-parking/marinas.htmThe coastline of the UK and Ireland is home to a huge variety of marinas, from 5-star
luxury accommodation to mid-river trots and mud berths.
Working boats, pleasure palaces and everything in between can be found either
visiting or residing – some in the water, others ashore.
Many facilities are remote havens offering easy access to secluded waterways and
silent, dark nights in your berth. Others are situated right in the heart of things with
apartments, shops, restaurants and more making for a vibrant cultural and
commercial atmosphere. And marinas close to large towns or cities often have
excellent public transport links so you have easy access to all the action, whether
that’s for sightseeing or simply restocking the boat.
What’s the attraction of waterside living for you? Peace and quiet? The excitement
of the city? There’s something for everyone, that’s for sure...
