Pollrone Quay sits on the River Suir near Mooncoin, serving as a stopping point for boats navigating this tidal stretch of the river.

The quay is referenced in accounts of cruising between Carrick-on-Suir and Fiddown, placing it along a popular inland waterway route in the south of Ireland.

The River Suir here is subject to significant tidal influence, with water levels that can drop sharply during dry spells or on a falling tide.

Boaters have reported grounding below the quay in low-water conditions, with the riverbed exposed several feet above the low-water mark. Mariners are advised to time their passages carefully relative to the tidal cycle when transiting this section of the Suir.
