When the tide is out, it goes miles out, so it's great to be able to walk along this beach. Grab a coffee in nearby Sandymount village.

The number 1 tourist attraction in Ireland I've been told. It's extremely busy, so best to book in advance I reckon. (Please don't take the horse and carriage rides, you may not be so keen on where they keep the horses and there are many unlicenced drivers). The view from the Gravity bar at the top is great.
