With just under 100 properties, Island Harbour is home to permanent residents, secondary residents and holiday makers alike. The locked harbour is a safe and secure place to moor a boat or just visit for the day.

Other amenities include a chandlery, boat builders with a repair workshop, 50 ton hoist and slip crane, hard standing.
