A charming, vibrant and culture-rich city, Dublin is also your gateway to the rest of Ireland
Perfect for a short city break or a longer holiday if planning to explore beyond the city limits, Dublin is an intimate and friendly city that's always full of life. Framed by mountains, centred on a river and edged by a beautiful bay, the city's streets and alleys are filled with vibrant art and historic buildings, many of which can be visited free of charge. Take time out to relax and indulge at trendy cafés and traditional Irish pubs. Walk the streets and you'll feel the energy of over 1,000 years of history, as echoes of the Vikings mix with buzzing boutiques, cobbled streets reverberate with the sounds of buskers, and 18th century parks play host to festivals, film and food markets
Dublin is a resoundingly social place, which you'll see in the busy pubs and nightlife scene, but there’s plenty of natural beauty too. Head out beyond the city, and the UNESCO Biosphere of Dublin Bay opens up with its Coastal Trail that runs from Skerries in North Dublin, to Killiney in South Dublin. The trail is easy to access by rail from the city centre, so exploring these little villages, wide sea views and rugged mountain backdrops has never been easier. Take to the Dublin mountains for a hike, go rock-climbing in Dalkey Quarry, walk the cliff path at Howth or join the Dublin hardcore who sea-swim whatever the weather. There's an adventure around every corner.
Dublin airport also offers a range of flights to holiday destinations in Europe and further afield, including Milan, Berlin, Istanbul, Tenerife, Doha, Dubai, Boston and Washington. For a full list of destinations and travel information from the airport visit www.dublinairport.com/
