Information
Howth Yacht Club is one of Ireland's premier sailing clubs with its own 250 berth marina.
Ideally located for North and Southbound traffic on the Irish Sea, it is well sheltered in all winds and can be entered at any state of tide.
The magnificent clubhouse overlooks the marina and has been expanded to be one of the largest sailing club 'clubhouses' in Ireland and the UK. With excellent road and rail links, Howth is in easy reach of Dublin Airport and ferry terminals, making it an obvious choice for crew changeovers.
The Marina Office maintains a listening watch on Ch M (37A) and Ch 80 between 0800 to 2130 hours summer season (April through September), and between 0800 to 1700 hours in the winter season (October to March).
If you are looking for a berth please check in with us in advance to ensure we can facilitate you when you arrive.
Information for visitors:
Howth Yacht Club marina is operated by a small professional team and enthusiastic member volunteers. Our club-owned marina and all our facilities exist to support sailing – ‘A Sport for Life’. We welcome cruising visitors to our club and the beautiful area around us. Berths are generally available but, to be assured, visitors can contact the Marina Office (+353 1 8392777 or marina@hyc.ie) before arrival in case space is under pressure due a regatta or other sailing event. If arriving after 2130, please berth on the 'Visitors’ berths' at a hammerhead (northern end of each pontoon) or underneath the crane.
On arrival, visitors should contact the Marina Office beside the marina exit. Our Marina team are available during the Summer season 0800 to 2130 hours from mid-April to end Sep. Outside these hours up to 2300 (2200 on Sundays), our Club Bar staff (+353 1 8320606) will assist you with registration, will give you a visitor pack and access card to some of the Club facilities, including the marina, showers and clubhouse. If arriving after 2300 please contact the marina office the next morning. If planning to visit outside summer season please contact the Marina Office on +353 1 8392777 and we will facilitate your arrival.
Howth Yacht Club also provides summer moorings for members and winter berthing for visiting boats, ensuring ideal shelter in the Irish Sea area for boats during the winter months. If your plans require a longer visit please contact us as we may be able to facilitate you.
On approach to Howth please contact us on VHF Ch 37 (M1) and we will direct you to your berth.
We look forward to welcoming you to share our marina and clubhouse facilities and hope you enjoy your visit to Howth and the surrounding area with its fascinating history, many visitor attractions and easy access to Dublin City (30min by DART train) and Airport (20min by Taxi).
Thank you
The disabled are not coming to Howth.
Can you please explain why?
Thanks.

You could try calling Howth YC on +353 1 832 2141 or email them on reception@hyc.ie Hope you have some success.
I believe the German yacht Ruby Tuesday is arriving soon in Howth Marina.
WE met that boat last summer in Iceland.
Would you please be so kind as to tell them that the crew of the French sailing boat Brecqhou which was alongside them in Bolungarvik would be glad to get in contact with them?
They can contact us at brecqhou@gmail.com or phone 00 33 6 81 06 18 38.
Thanks a lot
Best regards
Hubert Perier et Gabrielle Turgis

I am hoping you can help , I am looking for a space to relocate my Art Studio , functioning art school . I thought there may be a space on the west pier to locate and continue to work and hold classes . If there is a possibility that we could meet up and discuss I would be very grateful. Kind Regards , Simon Culleton ( 087 953 2832 )

We regularly arrange beach cleans and individually do our best to tackle environmental and pollution issues, however serious intervention is needed to resolve the massive amount of plastic debris and broken fishing nets which is nesting into our harbours and beaches.
Much of this debris is stuck in the harbour corners or settled on boulder rock and it is not safe or accessible for members of the public to clear it. Professional clearing is needed regularly, we need more bins in these rubbish spots and regulations need to be put in place to stop broken nets being discarded into the sea.
The negative effects are damaging wildlife, our food supply and tourism!
I would love to hear from you how we can make some positive changes,
Thanks.

I am writing my memoir and this information will be valuable. I shall appreciate your assistance in this regard.
Whilst entering Howth marina, in our Sadler 26, 4' 10" draught, at low tide in June this year (2011) we ran aground when only just off the main pontoons. When I say ran aground, I mean hit a submerged rock and then had to be towed off by the club launch. The following day another vessel was left high and dry for the duration of the tide in roughly the same spot.
