My Department is responsible for the operation and management of the six Fishery Harbour Centres including Howth Fishery Harbour Centre. The Fishery Harbour Centres were set up by virtue of the Fishery Harbour Centres Act 1968 (as amended) and their primary objective is to provide for the needs of fishermen and the fishing industry generally.

Parking is permitted within the limits of the Howth Fishery Harbour Centre for visitors and recreational users of the Harbour. The only requirement is that they comply with the traffic management markings and procedures.

Where there are safety concerns regarding traffic management and parking these should be brought to the attention of the Harbour Master in the first instance.
