The village is home to the Port St Mary Golf Links, the Island's sole 9-hole golf course, and also , a primary school opened in 1993-1994. The Isle of Man Yacht Club is also based at Port St Mary harbour. Chapel Bay, a sandy beach in the upper part of the village, is used for recreation and bathing in the summer months. Port St Mary Town
Castletown, Dorset The navy left in 1995, and Castletown lost the majority of its income, leading to the gradual loss of a number of businesses. In October 2014 Nemesis Properties applied for planning permission to redevelop Castletown Pier, and work began during 2015 on transforming the pier into "Crabbers Wharf". In June 2015 further development plans were revealed for the regeneration of Castletown, including a "scuba diving tourist facility, an American themed D-Day attraction and museum." It was also suggested that talks with Portland Port may allow Portland's two Mulberry Harbour Phoenix Units to be opened to the public. A small beach
