Dromineer is a small country village on the shores of Lough Derg and is well worth a visit. During the summer months the marina and the local bars and hotels become very popular with both the boating crowd and locals alike. There is also a small beach which is used by local children on the fine summer days As a Marina this is a popular stopping off point for those touring the Shannon and also for Irish boating enthusiasts who moor their boats here year round due to the excellent shelter the harbour provides. The whole area is steeped in history and many ruins of once great castles and lodges are dotted around the countryside. Lough Derg is home to one of the Oldest Yacht Clubs in the World and is famous for its Pike and Bream fishing, Dromineer is a very popular fishing and watersports location in Ireland. You will often see the dedicated anglers out early morning and late night and the sunsets over the lake provide excellent photographic opportunities.
