One of the most beautiful beach near Dublin. Skerries gives magical view of islands and lush green color of the grass in contrast with turquoise sea water is refreshing.

Very nice beach again. Today was so quiet, we enjoyed the sun and piece. One thing, the coffee car wasn't there anymore, and toilets were locked. Otherwise was perfect 🥰

The place is so calm and peaceful. Definitely worth a visit. A good life talk, game and a pint on a sunny day. Less crowded, small town. Pure gem ❤️
