Hazards

At Loughshinny you’ll find lobster pots galore and a rock spit extending SW from the end of the pier. Off the West point of Lambay Island are the Burren Rocks with a lit SHM and at the NW corner there are the Tailor’s Rocks marked by a lit NCM. There is also an unmarked rock 300m from the shore about 200m north west of the pier on the West side of Lambay.
