Great walk around Howth Head with sea views (10-15 km depending on route taken. Howth is famed for fish as fishermen land their catches here - there are a lot of restaurants from basic fish & chips to lobster to suit all budgets. Also lots of good pubs around Howth for a well earned pint after your walk! Accessible by LUAS/DART combo or direct by Dublin Bus (routes 31/31A from Abbey Street).

Great walk around Bray Head and on to Greystones, with sea views (Less than 10 km). From the train station continue along the promenade and take either the route around Bray Head to Greystones (Cliff walk) or over Bray Head and rejoin by descending on the hillside facing the coast. Lots of nice cafes in Greystones for a nice treat after your walk! Accessible by DART from all city stations.

Arts & Culture

Free classical music performances 1200 (mid-day) every Sunday - seating is first come first served, so for popular performers it's necessary to get there before 1145 to avoid disappointment, however people do leave sometimes, so if it's already full you may still get in if you are willing to wait a while. Cafe in the basement.
