Dollymount Strand A Northside retreat

Bull Island Dublin, Leinster

Held in fond esteem by real Dubliners, Dollymount Strand was the setting for thousands of days by the sea before the dawning of cheap international sun holidays. The area is now the only UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in a capital city. The strand is part of Bull Island (which was formed when harbour improvements caused a sand spit to evolve) and it is a classic example of sand marsh ecology. If you're feeling energetic, this is a great place to fly kites, and it's worth visiting if only to see the somewhat kitsch Virgin Mary at the end of the promenade. Review © 2009, Wcities
