Day 47 - Dun Laoghaire to Arklow

The river and pontoons at Arklow

I asked in the marina in Dun Laoghaire for a plan of the marina in Arklow was told that it no bigger than their office followed a list of derogatory comments. I left with sone trepidation wondering what we would find. To our great surprise we found a pleasant river pontoon adjacent to some new attractive housing and a large modern shopping percent. To top it all we had the best meal in a local pub we have had in Ireland. Arklow in my opinion is a far better place to stopover than Dun Laoghaire.

It was a very choppy trip with F6 to & winds and a very disturbed sea until we were about an hour away from Arklow and everything calmed down and we had a very pleasant sunny end to the day.
