Unbelievably well stocked scuba dive shop, set on board a ship in Grand canal basin. Not only is it…read morewell stocked, the owner is extremely knowledgeable as you would expect from a good dive shop. The best part is that the prices are not much more for most products than getting them online! Once you take shipping in to account, you might only pay a few euro more for many items and in some cases they are cheaper here than online. I spent €1455 there on completing our scuba kits and got a small discount to bring it down to an even €1400, something you can't get online usually. The owner is very knowledgeable as you would expect. He gave me a demo of my new regulators as every model can be different and have quirks.

What a great way to see Dublin! Ok we were very lucky with the weather and wind which probably…read morewould have changed our experience slightly but this was a blast. We did an evening cruise up and down the river. We had two double Kayaks and we were followed in a motorboat by our guide. Our guide was one of the happiest and enthusiastic people I have ever met in Dublin. He was super eager to help and his enthusiasm definitely made us feel a lot more comfortable on the water. He explained the history of the bridges both old and new as well as the history of the river. We went as far north as the Millennium bridge and then back out to the port where we were lucky enough to see a Mexican tall ship. The equipment was modern and we were all offered jackets and water proof pants. I get a lot of visitors from the states and I cant't wait to go back and take them on the river. The best part was looking at Dublin from the quiet waters! Highly recommend city kayaking!

Great city adventure that let's you experience city center through a whole new perspective! The…read morekayaking experience was fun, easy and we were able to get beautiful pictures (and awesome memories!). This experience is great for families, friends, couples, even solo! You get about 2 hours to explore a nice stretch of the Liffey (from Capel Street Bridge to the Samuel Beckett Bridge). Someone from the company is always at hand (they cruise around on a motor boat) if you need any help, but you're left up to your own devices, so you can enjoy the views, get a bit of a workout, float for a while, take some great pics and even interact with people on the bridges. Great fun! Highly recommended. The price is more than fair (€25 pp), the staff was responsive, friendly and knowledgeable, and the process (from booking to kayaking) was a breeze .

I so wanted to go out here to day! so i set off for the bus stop, (the 75 gets you out to Dun…read moreLaoghaire) and i stood at the stop for over half an hour beforei realised i had not seen one bus pass by not to mind the 75! i think they were all cancelled because of the small bit of snow we had, boo to you dublinbus! anyway i was very disappointed because its a lovely fresh crisp day and a walk along the lesser used pierin Dun Laoghaire would have been perfect today. yes it would have been cold but walking quickly would have warmed you up! This is a great pier to walk along because its less used than the east pier, there are no people to pass out or children running around (sometimes you think the kids on the other pier are going to run off the edgeinto the freezing water, where are their parents!) and everyone on the pier seems to be down with the serious business of getting to the end of the pier and back again. yes the ground is alot more uneven on this pier and yes teddys icecream is further away (even desirable on a day like today) and finally yes there is no cool weather station to look at but i think that this is the pier to be on if your up for a proper walk with a friend or if you want to be alone with your thoughts!

If you fancy a quieter walk this is the pier for you. There are less people but the people you meet…read moreare much nicer as they will pass the time of day or nod a 'Hello' as you pass by. I love this walk perhaps because it is less commercial there are runners, joggers and dogs can be let off the lead. I am not sure if they are allow off the lead but I am not asking so I dont know.

The Ha'penny Bridge was constructed over the River Liffey which permits pedestrian traffic across…read more Standing on the bridge peering into the river it was breezy and a cool 60 degrees. The river runs through the center of Dublin extending from the north to the south. Residences and eateries are plentiful on both sides of the river. Basically, this was a hotspot for our guided tour itinerary, but the experience was not too entertaining - see it once and done.

Beautiful closer to the Dublin Bay but not so much as you get further inland. The River Liffey is…read morethe heart of Dublin, splitting it from north side to south side. There are a bunch of bridges, some are for cars, some for pedestrians only, some only for trains. Early in the morning when the river is still and reflective, there are some amazing photographs available. Ha'Penny Bridge, Custom House, the Cathedral and more. I was up by Heuston Station where there are e-bikes and shopping trolleys in the riverbed. They're covered up as the tide comes in. Check the tide charts before you schedule a kayak tour!
