Dublin: The Granite Coast walk from Dún Laoghaire to Killiney

Come with me, Ian, a bona fide local, to explore Dublin’s coastline on a fun and relaxed guided walk from Dún Laoghaire to Dalkey — and perhaps a little further to Killiney or the Islands. This scenic route blends wide sea views with layers of history beneath your feet. As we follow the curve of the bay, the landscape reveals its story — from Wicklow granite that built harbours, homes and landmarks to the events behind the creation of Dún Laoghaire Harbour. Along the way, hear stories of maritime tragedy, Victorian ambition, and everyday life by the sea. Discover Dalkey’s past as a Viking trading settlement, tales of defence against Napoleon, and connections to Joyce, who found inspiration here. This is a walk at an easy, friendly pace — with time to pause, take in the views, and enjoy the experience together. Flexible route with options for a swim, sauna, coffee, ice cream, or a pint — and plenty of chances to stop, chat, and soak up the atmosphere of Dublin’s unique coast.
