Whitegate
Home to one of the major operators of pleasure cruisers on Lough Derg and the River Shannon, Whitegate is a very popular centre for boating, angling and other watersports.
Located between Mountshannon and Portumna on the Clare-Galway borders, the village is an ideal holiday base.
Shannon Castle Line operates a fleet of modern, self-drive 2-8 berth motor cruisers from its base at Williamstown Harbour. The cruisers come fitted out to the highest standards, with all the necessary essentials and safety equipment. For more details on hiring pleasure cruisers from the company, check out Shannon Castle Line
Other activities possible from a Whitegate base include horse riding and pony trekking at An Sibin Equestrian Centre, angling, and touring the attractive countryside in Clare and East Galway near the majestic Lough Derg.
Amenities locally also include a pub and self-catering cottages.
