Directions

Come and discover Portmarnock, a charming seaside village just a short trip from Dublin. You'll love the feel of the incredibly soft sand on the famous 'Velvet Strand,' a beautiful 5km stretch of beach perfect for a long, refreshing walk with stunning views of the Dublin mountains and the Irish Sea. After you've taken in the sea air, wander into the village for a bite to eat or follow the scenic coastal path for a leisurely stroll to the neighbouring village of Malahide.
