Run as a locked leisure marina with around 120 berths and a boatyard, Kilrush on the north shore of the Shannon estuary in County Clare is served by ferry operators running the short crossing to Scattery Island. It is not a commercial cargo facility: there is no container or general-freight handling here. Shippers with estuary cargo turn to Shannon Foynes Port at Foynes upriver, which is expanding its general cargo terminal and marine-industry landbank.
