Phoenix Park
Keep an eye out for the wild deer! I was surprised how close they came to the paths, so definitely have your camera ready. It’s such a cool sight!
Bring some snacks and water. There are a few cafes but they can be pricey. A picnic is a fun way to relax and save some money!
Tramore Beach
Don’t miss the promenade walk before sunset. The views are stunning, and it’s a peaceful way to end your beach day without spending a dime.
Torc Waterfall
Don’t skip the nearby trails. I think they’re just as stunning as the waterfall and much less crowded. Just be ready for a bit of a hike to really catch those amazing views
I recommend bringing some cash to pay for parking. There are some nice spots nearby, but they only take cash. Didn’t expect that and had to drive around looking for an ATM!
Dublin Zoo
National Botanic Gardens
Killarney National Park
Fota Wildlife Park
Bring your own snacks and drinks! They allow you to picnic in certain areas, which can save you a good bit of cash on food inside.
Croagh Patrick
Powerscourt Estate
Pack a picnic! The gardens are super spacious, and there are nice spots to relax. Food options in the cafe can be pricey, so it’s a good way to save a few bucks.
If you’re into gardening, check out the plant shop. I found some rare plants there, and the prices were decent compared to my local garden center!
Wear comfy shoes! The pathways are lovely but can be quite uneven, and you'll want to explore every corner without worrying about your feet.
Inchydoney Beach
Don’t forget to bring your own towels and beach toys as rentals can be pricey. I paid way more than I expected for just a couple of beach items so bringing your own saves money.
If you’re planning to surf, check the tide times first. The waves can be different based on the tides and it can be frustrating not knowing when the best times to catch waves are.
Bring a light jacket! I didn't expect the wind to pick up in the afternoon. It can get a bit chilly even on sunny days, so be prepared.
