Review:
A short train ride from Dublin will take visitors to Skerries, a scenic, seaside town where time slows down and provides an escape from the busy city life. The coastal village is home to food and cultural festivals throughout the year and is an excellent place for outdoor adventurers to explore. Many people choose to kayak to the surrounding islands just off Dublin’s coast that offers hiking, garden trails, and beaches. Skerries are known for the legend of St. Patrick and what is believed to be his footprint is still seen on Red Island today.
Many visitors to Skerries love to visit the 16th-century mill where guided tours are available. The Ardgillan Castle is part of the regional park that includes a five-mile stretch of trails, gardens, and parks that are perfect for a day outdoors in the mountains. Skerries
