Beaches
There’s a coastal walk from Portrane to Donabate. It’s an out and back walk and takes approximately an hour. There is a great little food truck at the end of the walk and I recommend their coffee and toasted cheese and ham sandwich!

Portmarnock Beach
This is a lovely place for a dip when the tide is in. It’s on the south side of the city but is accessible by Dart. You can catch the Dart from Clontarf or from the city centre. You can also take the #4 bus from Mobhi Road which is about a 15 minute walk from the house.
