Where she lies
Galway Bay Sailing Club Ireland
Sail the wild edge of the Atlantic from Galway Bay
Galway Bay opens straight onto the Wild Atlantic Way, with the Aran Islands standing guard across its mouth and the Burren's grey hills to the south. It is big, honest sailing water off a city famous for its music and craic — race with the club midweek, then cruise to Inis Mor for the weekend.
-
The Aran IslandsInis Mor, Inis Meain and Inis Oirr across the bay.
-
The Burren & Cliffs of MoherLimestone hills and Europe's great sea cliffs to the south.
-
Galway cityTrad sessions and seafood a short hop from the moorings.
-
Moran's Oyster CottageLegendary oysters on the shore of the bay.
-
Galway's Latin QuarterPubs and restaurants in the medieval city.
Open Atlantic bay — respect the swell and weather off the west coast. The Aran Islands, Kilronan and the Clare shore are natural cruising targets; Atlantic depressions demand a careful eye on the forecast and good harbour options at Galway and Rossaveal.
