Dublin is a very sailor-friendly destination and Ireland is an excellent country to explore by boat.
Separated from mainland Britain by the Irish Sea, Ireland is lined with dramatic cliffs and wide sweeping beaches, and surrounded by hundreds of islands and islets, each with their own place in Celtic folklore. Accomplished seafarers can cross to Dublin from the UK, sailing the 63- mile route from Holyhead in Wales to Dun Laoghaire in Dublin Bay, and the marina facilities on arrival are world-class.
