Portmarnock Beach

Reviewed By Claire546 - Ballymena, United Kingdom

I had the pleasure of walking this busy beach during a recent stay here. I found it very clean which was surprising given how many people, dogs and horses were also enjoying it. The perfect place for a stroll along the beach to blow the cobwebs away.

Dollymount Strand

Reviewed By philc-home - Sutton, Ireland

Bull Island, or North Bull Island is home to Dollymount strand and acres of dunes, rich in flora and fauna. Interesting wooden bridge, hip outdoor Café ( "Happy Out"), a resident seal population (at the Sutton end), swooping birds and delicate flowers that leave you in awe at how they can survive the sometimes-strong sea breezes. Unwind for free! Our family love it!

Seapoint Beach

Reviewed By L7768EQdavidd - Devon, United Kingdom

Sunday 12th January and we visited popular all year swimming venue. It is located on east coast of the Ireland, outside Dublin City between Blackrock and Dun Loaghaire. All thought it was a dry day and there were blue skies it was a bitterly cold day and yet there were a number of people taking to the water. This was a real trip down memory lane as I used to swim here as a youngster which was over 40 years ago and this was the first return visit since then. Nothing appears to have changed since I was here last. The Martello Tower was still standing by the headland, with an old cannon on it's roof. The 2 slipways, which we swam to and from, were still in place and used by bathers. There was a real panoramic view of Dublin Bay, stretching from Dun Loaghaire to Hoath and along to Sandymount and Ringsend. It was also possible to see the Aviva Stadium in the distance.

Malahide Beach

Reviewed By motorcar1 - Dublin, Ireland

Visited Malahide Beach today after our visit to Malahide Castle. It is a lovely beach with a large car park as well as lots of on street parking. There are lifeguards there during the summer months. Public toilets near the car park too. The ice cream van is in the car park too, so the children are well happy. It’s a great spot on a nice day.

Donabate Beach

Reviewed By TatNiall - Galway, Ireland

We stayed at Shoreline Hotel in July. The weather was mix of sun, wind and rain, but we enjoyed our walk on the beach. The beach is partly sandy and rocky. On one side is a good path to walk along the beach, so you don't need walk on the sand if you don't want to. Amazing views around the beach. Youtube Channel - Celtic Spirit of Ireland (link in our profile) has a video from the beach.
