Public Boatyard

A boatyard is provided in the Coal Harbour for members of the public who do not have access to Yacht Clubs or storage facilities. The two public slipways provide popular access to the water and are a hive of activity in the summer months.

Private Boatyard

A private Boatyard is also situated near to the Old Coastguard Station adjacent to the Coal Harbour

Dún Laoghaire Yacht Services in association with MGM Marine Ltd. operate the Boatyard.

The Boatyard Opening Hours are 8AM - 5PM Mon - Fri (winter) and 8AM - 6PM (summer)

Our Sales Office is open from 8AM - 6.30PM Mon to Fri; 10AM to 5PM Saturday and Sunday all year round.

Boat Storage

It is intended that any public wishing to store a craft in the Boatyard first apply directly to the Harbour Office to enquire if there is a space available, or the size of boat is acceptable. All being in order they can either collect a Boat Storage Licence, or have one posted out.

It is not intended, nor desirable, to make such a license available on the e-mail as there is no certainty that a returned license would be unaltered and so differ from the original licence. It is therefore intended to retain complete control of the issue of the Boat Storage Licence, and the other licences that are issued by the Harbour Office.
