Carrick-on-Suir Marina

The marina officially opened in 2005, revitalizing the historic connection of Carrick-on-Suir to its waterways. Historically, the River Suir was a bustling route for transporting goods from the rich agricultural lands of South Tipperary to Waterford. The river port played a crucial role in the local economy until the mid-20th century, with steam-driven tugs like the Rocks and operating until the 1960s. The modern marina continues this tradition, now serving as a hub for recreational boating and a point of interest for visitors.
