Widely recognised as a superb harbour and sailing centre, Baltimore is one of the main tourist destinations on the West Cork coastline, located approx. 70 mins drive from Cork Airport. It is the ferry point for the inhabited Islands of Cape Clear and Sherkin and the gateway to the renowned sailing waters of Roaring Water Bay.

This is a rare opportunity for such an attractive well-located development with extensive direct access to the harbour.
