Venture South along Dublin Bay and come to some of Dublin's most picturesque spots. The
scenery changes rapidly from flat sandy beaches to rocky cliffs and coves harbouring picture
perfect seaside towns and harbours. Sandycove, Dalkey and Killiney have preserved an old
world charm. On a sunny day, you can even find an almost Mediterranean atmosphere here.
To the North of Dublin you find Howth, a major fishing harbour and Malahide, a quaint sea-
side town with a park and romantic 19th century castle.
