description
Leenane is a lovely village in the navigational end to this Fjiord. There are 6 mooring buoys that are maintained by the local authority and are available at a nominal charge. +353 (0)91 509000. I have never seen them all full, so, it is a safe bet. You are a short dinghy ride to a village with 3 bars, and 3 restaurants, and a local craft centre/shop, seaweed baths, and childrens playground.
If you like hillwalking, well then you are at home here. Watch out for the fishfarms on the way in. Good fishing here as well, so you could catch your supper.

Want to know how the wind score works? Then you should read this explanation.
The wind forecasts come from yr.no (Norwegian Meteorological Institute), and was last updated 54 minutes ago (Monday 23 June 11:17 AM). The next night score shows you the worst hour between 22:00 and 08:00 the next night. We recommend that you check multiple sources for wind forecasts. windy.com is a good website to show larger wind systems.

Killary Harbour is surrounded by high hills or mountains. When strong winds come from the mountainous side there is a risk of turbulent or katabatic winds (also called "fall winds"), which may be rather unpleasant. In such conditions, you should not rely on the wind protection score for the coming night. Click to edit.
The visits are retrieved from AIS data. You can click to see all visiting ships to Killary Harbour, as well as statistics about the ships that visits
