Description:

  • Close to the city centre, and accessible on the DART (Dublin's light rail system), Sandymount Strand is a long expanse of fine sand. The tide goes out almost two miles at its lowest point and so this is a favourite spot for those seeking space and freedom from the city. Not great for swimming or bathing because of quickly changing tides, it remains an excellent location for walking or running. The strand even has a literary claim to fame: it was a favourite haunt of James Joyce, featuring in the opening chapter of Ulysses.
