What to expect

The Dublin Riviera is a guided walk back in time to a golden era where local Dún Laoghaire residents and visitors wined and dined in the yacht clubs, restaurants and hotels along the waterfront, and danced in the Pavilion, the ballrooms and the nightclubs. The walk will provide an insight into the symbiotic relationship between the harbour and the town and how this helped Dún Laoghaire to evolve into an elegant, glamorous “Dublin Riviera”.

Highlights: Waterfront Yacht Clubs and the Royal Visits The Pavilion and Town Hall Royal Marine Hotel and Gardens Haddington House Hotel Former Seafront hotels on Victoria and Marine Terrace Dún Laoghaire Baths (finish)
