Harbour Quotes
It is not the going out of port, but the coming in, that determines the success of a voyage.
Henry Ward Beecher
Walking Map
Walking, Angling, Birdwatching
For many Dublin people Dún Laoghaire Harbour is best known as a popular location for walking, particularly at week-ends. The West Pier, though less used for walking, has always been a popular site for angling and one can always expect to see a line of fishermen standing at the end of the Pier.
It is also a very favourable vantage point from which to see the many seabirds that frequent Dublin Bay.
Seals are also to be seen adjacent to the Old Ice Plant, now a fish shop, on Traders Wharf.
