  • 10. Ros an Mhíl Fishery Harbour Centre
    Development of Business Plans for the Fishery Harbour Centres 10. Ros an Mhíl Fishery Harbour Centre 10.1 Profile of the Fishery Harbour Centre Ros an Mhíl Fishery Harbour Centre (FHC) is located in Connemara, County Galway approximately thirty miles from Galway city. The inner harbour is positioned on the North Eastern shore of upper Cashla Bay and is very sheltered. The jurisdiction of the FHC stretches out as far a line from Aillecluggish Point to Cannon Rock. Access to Cashla Bay is through a well defined and marked channel. The Harbour Centre is staffed by a Harbour Master, two General Operatives and a Secretary/Administrator. Twenty six vessels are based in Ros an Mhíl with whitefish being the primary catch. The harbour also sees twenty to twenty five visiting boats from the East coast carrying mainly prawns and whitefish, there are virtually no foreign landings. The biggest constraint at Ros an Mhíl is water depth which makes it impossible for larger vessels to land their cargoes. This presents problems for the fish processing plant in getting access locally to sufficient quantities of stock for production. There are a number of Sea Fishery Protection Officers operating from the harbour. Ros an Mhíl is the primary harbour for passenger travel to the Aran Islands. Tourism to the islands is becoming increasingly popular with nearly 300,000 passenger journeys per annum. The facilities in the harbour centre for these tourists are quite basic with only rudimentary toilet and eating facilities and very little shelter. Two ferry companies, Island Ferries and Aran Direct offer frequent daily services to all three islands from the harbour using fleets of modern fast ferries.
