Foynes Port

Foynes Port is a small but strategically located seaport in County Limerick, Ireland, serving as a key point for shipping and transportation. Historically, it was known for its role in aviation and cargo handling, especially during the mid-20th century. Today, it functions mainly for logistics, including the movement of goods like freight, livestock, and industrial materials. Its location along the Shannon Estuary allows for accessible maritime access to Ireland’s interior, supporting regional economic development. While not a large commercial hub, Foynes Port plays an important role in local and national trade, benefiting from its proximity to major road and rail networks.
