Howth is a beautiful Irish village located just east of Dublin along the beautiful Howth Peninsula, known for its gorgeous historic landmarks and sweeping seaside views. Visitors can explore the grounds of the beautiful 15th-century Howth Castle, which is home to lovely rhododendron plantings and a transport museum showcasing preserved local trams. A vintage radio museum is showcased at the 19th-century Martello Tower, located near the ruins of the Medieval-era St. Mary's Abbey. Within the charming fishing village's city center, visitors can enjoy excellent opportunities for cod and ray fishing along the city's beautiful pier, dine at excellent seafood restaurants, explore the Bog of Frogs Loop for scenic cliff views and panoramas of nearby Lambay Island, or walk to the beautiful historic Baily Lighthouse. Offshore, the Ireland's Eye island bird sanctuary showcases the ruins of an ancient church.
