The Dublin district of Dalkey is full of small shops. It smells of good food and warm baked goods on the streets.

In Dalkey, where the sea whispers its secrets and the old stone walls hold tales of yore, lies a town steeped in history and charm.

From the hallowed grounds of Dalkey Castle to the quaint streets that echo with literary whispers, this place resonates with a sense of nostalgia.

The harbor breathes the salty breath of sailors long gone, while the vibrant pubs hum with laughter and lively conversation.

Dalkey, the muse of inspiration, has enchanted the likes of James Joyce himself, casting a spell that lingers in the air. Wander its cobblestone paths and lose yourself in the essence of a bygone era, where the past and present dance in harmony.

Dalkey is located in the south of Dublin and is easily accessible by train (DART). Dalkey used to be called the “City of Seven Castles”. However, only two of these remain. Both are on the main street of the pretty town. The place has a Mediterranean flair. We also found a fish restaurant here with the bizarre name “Guinea Pig”.

Hollywood star Matt Damon even spent three months in Dalkey because he couldn't go home because of Corona (it was written on a board at the train station).
