If money was no object I would move here in a heartbeat. I love to fantasize about the what ifs as…read moreI amble down the road that opens into the bay with a beautiful view of Dalkey island. I like to go there to sit on the benches that they have set up on carefully laid cobbles. There is also a telescope to look out at the passing boats. To the left is a small pier where you can go fishing (license permitting). You can stroll down to the pier and look at the colourful boats and buy fresh lobster. I spent a good half hour last week just sitting there. Park your car in Dun Laoghaire and take the walk out there and fantasy like me about living there someday... To wake up everyday with a view like that must be a glorious thing... Oh well, mean while in the real world I have a gas bill which daydreaming won't pay!

I am so fortunate to live right beside coliemore harbour! It's a beautiful harbour throughout all…read morethe 4 seasons round. Especially in the summer it's just something else indeed! It's a popular place for fishermen who fish off the side wall of the harbour, it's also got a nice little bench area with a telescope that looks out on the sea and Dalkey island. Speaking of Dalkey island..there's a little ferry that drops you from the harbour out too the island for about 35€ and can hold about 8 ppl..

Also a great spot for photographers, I myself am a huge fan of taking photos and love it! Such a scenic area to do so and if you are lucky, on a clear day you might see some dolphins! They've been regularly spotted from coliemore harbour!
