Cork City Marina is now in new hands, following the Port of Cork Company’s move from its now former corporate headquarters in the Customs House to Ringaskiddy on Cork Harbour.

In a letter announcing the change, the Port of Cork’s Deputy Harbour Master Nicholas Bourke said: “It has been wonderful to have the marina under our stewardship, and being able to interact with all the numerous events, visitors and occasions over the last number of years.

“Indeed we have been visited by yachts from far and wide, learner rowers and even royal families.

“The new owners, Tower Holdings Group, are moving into their new premises with an exciting project ahead. In the meantime the marina remains open, albeit with a different owner at the helm.”

Bourke says the new owners will post their rates “in due course and formalise any arrangements for the City Marina as they settle in”. They can be contacted via Alison Lee at [email protected] or 021 245 5050.
