Shannon Harbour

Quiet canal village where the Grand Canal meets the River Shannon.

Shannon Harbour marks the meeting of the Grand Canal and the River Shannon. Old bridges, locks, quays, and moored boats make it one of the easiest places near Banagher to see how the inland waterways shaped the area.

It is a small, slow stop rather than a major attraction. That is the point: bring time to walk the banks and watch the canal traffic move through.
