I would have never thought to visit Howth if it hadn't been for VT. I can't believe there is such beautiful scenery a mere 30-minute DART ride away. When I show friends pictures of Howth they all remark, "This is what I imagine when I think of Ireland." They're right.
The weather was a bit insane the day I went. It was sunny and windy ... then rainy and cloudy ... then it went to sunny on one side of the pier and rainy on the other. Bizarre.
Howth (rhymes with both), is charming. You'll probably see that word used by most people who have visited Howth. It has a lovely scent of the sea in the air.
Howth is a great way to spend a couple of hours. Walk around. Enjoy the sights, the smells and definitely the fresh fish.
- Pros:Beautiful scenery, friendly people, close to Dublin
- Cons:Not a one
- In a nutshell:What you picture when you generally think of Ireland

A few weeks ago we had lunch with our granddaugter in the Bloody Stream. We had scampi and it was terrible, told the bar man, the waitress and sent an email. No response from anyone.
Great tips and photos! I have applied to be an Irish citizen (eligible b/c 2 of my grandparents were born there) -but I have never been there. When I do visit, I will need to check out Howth! Best regards, Bill
I will defenitly make a trip to Howth when I go to Dublin!
Nice tips on Howth :-)
Happy birthday.....great tips...I hope you have a great day....
All roads must lead to Howth. One gets a wee bit tired of drinking Guiness in Dublin so it's on the DART to Howth for a bit of detox..
I'm smiling again .... I also have a pic of the 'falling car' sign :O Did you see the sign for the El Paso Restaurant? Cuz I got that one too!
