My Department, owns, manages and operates two Fishery Harbour Centres in the counties referred to. Namely Killybegs Fishery Harbour Centre in Donegal and Ros An Mhíl Fishery Harbour Centre in Galway.

Large fishing vessels can access both of these Fishery Harbour Centres at all stages of the tide.

Information with regard to ports not under the control of my Department should be sought from the Department of Transport and the Department of Environment Heritage and Local Government.
