Baltimore might have been made for sailing. The large natural harbour is perfect for windsurfers and dinghy sailors, and Baltimore Sailing Club regularly hosts dinghy race meetings. The harbour also provides a safe anchorage for visiting yachts with visitors' moorings, pontoon berths and shore facilities, so it is a popular port of call for yachts cruising the southwest coast or on passage across the Atlantic. At the other extreme, the sheltered waters of Carbery's Isles and Roaringwater Bay represent a unique inshore cruising ground with a variety of harbours and quiet anchorages, where you can sail for miles without venturing into the open sea if you don't want to. And the pleasures of sailing at Baltimore are not just for boat-owners or experienced sailors – there are charter yachts with experienced skippers at your disposal and sailing schools catering for all age groups and levels of sailing skill.![]() |
