Dun Laoghaire Guide

Located in County Dublin in Ireland, Dun Laoghaire is around 12 km to the south of Dublin city centre. Dun Laoghaire is the county town of Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown county and formerly a major port of entry from Britain. The town's harbour is one of the largest in Ireland and hosts limited ferry services to the United Kingdom. The harbour is noted for its two granite piers. Popular with walkers, the East Pier has featured in the 1996 movie Michael Collins.

Located at the eastern end of George's Street visitors will find the people's Park which is a traditional Victorian style park which features a lovely tearoom. Also in the town visitors will find a number of restaurants, cafes and pubs along with more than 100 other retail businesses.

The town has a seasonal (also Christmas & New Year) ferry connection to Holyhead in Anglesey, Wales, which is operated by Stena Line and the vessel is Stena Explorer.


Holyhead Guide

The Welsh town of Holyhead is located on Holy Island in Anglesey. At one point Holy Island was connected to Anglesey by the Four Mile Bridge but was replaced by the construction of a causeway in the 19th century. The Cobb, as the causeway is named, now carries the main road and railway line that serves the town. The Church of St. Cybi is the heart of the town and was built inside one of Europe's few three-walled Roman Forts. Other Roman sites in the town include a watchtower on the top of Holyhead Mountain inside Mynydd y Twr which is a prehistoric hill fort. There are also signs that the area has been inhabited since prehistoric times, with circular huts, burial chambers and standing stones all being found in the area. The current lighthouse is on South Stack on the other side of Holyhead Mountain and is open to the public. The area is also popular with birdwatchers.

From the Port of Holyhead, ferries depart to Dublin and Dun Laoghaire in Ireland.
