OUR STORY

Proudly supporting Ireland's marine community with trusted expertise since 1987. 

Viking Marine chandlery and sailing clothing in Ireland

VIKING MARINE

More Than a Marine Store

Since 1987, Viking Marine has been at the heart of Ireland's marine leisure community. From our home in Dún Laoghaire and our store in Kilcoole, we've become the trusted destination for sailors, cruisers, paddlers, swimmers and water sports enthusiasts who want expert advice, quality equipment and a team that genuinely understands life on the water.

What sets Viking Marine apart isn't just what we sell, it's who we are.

VIKING MARINE

Our Team

Our team is made up of experienced sailors and passionate water users. We race, cruise, coach and spend countless hours on the water ourselves, so when you ask us for advice, it comes from first-hand experience. Whether you're preparing for your first sailing lesson, fitting out a yacht for offshore racing, replacing essential safety gear or looking for the right equipment for your next adventure, we're here to help you find the right solution.

We've carefully selected the world's leading marine brands because we believe reliability matters. If it's on our shelves, it's because we'd trust it ourselves.

Built Around Community

Viking Marine has always been more than a shop.

We're proud to be part of the communities that make Irish marine leisure so special. From supporting local sailing clubs, classes and regattas to working alongside schools, events and organisations across the country, we believe that the strength of our sport comes from the people within it.

Our doors are open to everyone, whether you've spent a lifetime on the water or you're taking your very first steps into boating or sailing. We're passionate about helping more people enjoy the water safely and with confidence.

Our Ethos

Everything we do is guided by three simple principles.

  • Expertise you can trust. Practical advice from people who use the products every day.
  • Community at our core. Supporting the clubs, sailors and water users that make Ireland's marine community thrive.
  • Respect for the water. Championing safety, quality and responsible enjoyment of our coastline so future generations can experience it too. Every season brings new adventures, new innovations and new opportunities to get out on the water. Whatever your journey looks like, Viking Marine is here to help you make the most of it.
