Get brave and take a tour outside Dublin – you’ll uncover violent history, odd folklore, castles, hills and even a peek of Italy along the seashore

Yes, Dublin city itself offers more than enough to fill a holiday, but there’s so much more! Hop on the Dart (train) and explore the sweep of Dublin Bay to unearth a whole lot of riches. Pretty towns rich with live history, delicious cuisine and amazing craic – all only a short ride out of town. And the weird thing is – they’re all different. Now all you have to do is choose your favorite…

Howth

The greatest method to arrive in Howth? By boat, of course. This delightful small beach community is intimately tied to sailing, and a terrific way to get here is with Dublin Bay Cruises from Dun Laoghaire. Step out onto the pier in Howth and in front of you, you’ll have the selection of some of the greatest seafood restaurants in Dublin, from casual tapas to fishy fine dining to old-school salty fish and chips at Beshoff’s.

You may explore the pier, take a boat out to the little Ireland’s Eye island, or enjoy a lengthier trip around the Howth Head with the spectacular Howth Cliff Loop.

Standing staring out to sea from here, one can almost visualize the sight of the first Viking invaders who came here back in 819. Those Norse attackers may be long gone, but you can get a taste of the past at Howth Castle, which can trace its history to 1235 and currently remains a family residence. You have to plan castle visits in plenty of time, but you’re free to walk the grounds, where you’ll see a gigantic fallen Stone Age dolmen known as Aideen’s Grave.

Dún Laoghaire\sToday Dún Laoghaire is all genteel streets and gorgeous marina, yet one November night in 1807, during 12 horrible hours a storm drove two ships on to the cliffs and 400 people perished. The disaster drove the authorities to create a port, and the outcome was two piers built of large granite stones. They have subsequently become a shelter for mariners, and also a lovely location to wander while absorbing the grandeur of Dublin Bay.

Join the residents for a walk along the pier and then go for coffee and a ‘99 ice cream at Teddy’s Ice Cream, which has been a much-loved, treat-filled staple since 1950.

Bagatelle ‘Summer in Dublin’

The picturesque and mountainous cobble stone alleyways of Dún Laoghaire are worth a visit, but your eyes will constantly be pulled back to the glittering of the water. It’s little surprise therefore, that Dún Laoghaire boasts three sailing clubs overlooking the harbor: The Royal, The National and the Irish National… even if you’re not out there yourself, get a coffee and watch the beginners try to manage the seas.

The 5 greatest beach & coastal villages in Ireland

1. Skerries, Co. Dublin – escape the hubbub of the city

Just north of Dublin City, you’ll discover the picturesque tiny seaside village of Skerries, which is one of the greatest Dublin commuter towns.
