Hiring a boat from the boat yard base of Carrick-on-Shannon is the ideal starting location for a long boating holiday as it offers so many fantastic routes to cruise along. Carrick-on-Shannon is located in the middle of the river Shannon just next to picturesque Lough Key offering fantastic mooring spots to stop and have a picnic and walk in the woodlands surrounding the lake.
Cruise south down the river Shannon which is a joy because it has few locks to negotiate and wonderful wildlife to Lough Ree and then further on to Lough Derg. Another route is to cruise north up the river Shannon and westwards along the Shannon-Erne waterway that takes you to Lough Erne. The canal of Shannon-Erne has many fantastic historic locks and 34 stone bridges that give you a real flavour of Irelands past. So book a boat cruiser from our choice to enjoy a wonderful and memorable holiday in Ireland.
