Phennick Cove Marina
Phennick Cove Marina sits inside one of Northern Ireland's three main working fishing harbours, giving it a genuinely salty, working-waterfront character you won't find at purpose-built leisure marinas. The backdrop of Ardglass's medieval tower houses and castles rising above the harbour wall makes it a pretty memorable spot to tie up. You're also well-placed to explore the Lecale Peninsula coastline and the historic town itself, which has a solid local pub and seafood scene worth diving into.
