This is the best i have found for tide tables. They will have the 2011 tables out soon which is good for clubs that want to organise comps for next year!

MOON PHASES

SUNRISE/SUNSET

• Gaisma: http://www.gaisma.com/en/
• Go Flying: http://www.sunrisesunsetmap.com/

MAPS

• Very useful tool for finding places, ie how to get down to the shore. Zoom and see how detailed it is
http://maps.osi.ie/publicviewer
• Virtual earth is excellent if they have the "Birdseye view" in the area you are interested in. Its by far the best free aerial photography resource but its coverage is quite limited
http://maps.live.com/
• Google Maps, the quality of image varies depending on the area but its generally quite good
http://maps.google.com/
• This is a handy little site that combines google, yahoo etc aerial photo resources into one handy interface that allows you to switch between the sources and see which one covers the area best

If you are in the clew bay area the mayo sailing club website has an anemometer- which is handy for realtime direction and wind speed.
