Parks & Nature
Great spot for relax, walking and enjoy small piece of wilderness (if you will go off common footpath trail)
Ward River Valley Park

Awesome spot for hiking, sightseeing, relax... There is famous Market with plenty various homemade goods, open only Sat-Sun. Fishing port with few restaurants, preparing fresh fish catch. You can walk around cliffs, or walk uphill and from there is great view to whole bay, around peninsula and even you can see Wicklow Mountains!
My recommendation is go there early morning (especially in Sat-Sun), because place is quite famous and around noon and in good weather can be pretty crowdy.

Nice sand beach with very long shallow area. Once the tide is down, you can walk almost one mile towards sea. Is it also good starting point to walk around coast towards south to another long beach (towards Eagans Field)
