| Welcome to Ireland's Newest Cruise Paradise, The
Shannon-Erne Waterway!
The reconstruction and re-opening of the old Ballinamore
/Ballyconnell canal has created a new cruising concept. It
has opened up for exploration and enjoyment a hitherto undiscovered
region of natural beauty and a wide variety of cruising waters....
The waterway is unique in that it includes within its length
stretches of still-water canal, canalised river and a series
of scenic lakes.

The waterway crosses the watershed between the upper reaches
of the Shannon and the Erne - thus creating a cruising paradise
where little towns and pubs lay along side the water and where
the pace of living, is relaxing, friendly, intimate.
Westward, the waterway leads you through the St.John's Lakes
and Lough Scur, visiting Ballinamore, Keshcarrigan, Kilclare
and Leitrim to the upper reaches of the mighty Shannon. |

Here there is the choice of going downstream to Carrick, Drumsna,
Dromod and Rooskey, or upstream towards Lough Allen, or Acres Lake
beside Dumshambo with its recreational amenity or up the Boyle River
into beautiful Lough Key.
Eastward leads you through a chain of lakes with inviting islands
and abundant wildlife to Ballyconnell, and thence onto Upper Lough
Erne and its islands, quiet mooring, Crom Castle, Carrybridge, and
to Enniskillen with its activities, hertige and shopping.
