Visiter The Bull Wall.

The Bull Wall is a kind of promenade bridge (or breakwater) that marks out one side of Dublin harbour. Quite imposing, it links Dublin to Bull Island, a peninsula in the Dublin region. It’s the perfect place in Dublin to take in the Irish capital’s seascapes, enjoy the iodized air and stroll around!

A bridge linking Dublin to the Bull Island peninsula

The Bull Way (also known as the “Wooden Bridge”) has a number of functions in Dublin: it not only defines an entrance to Dublin harbor, but also provides a link between the capital and Bull Island, while helping to prevent the silting up of Dublin Bay.

It’s a wonderful spot for pedestrians and cyclists alike, with advanced views of the Irish Sea, lighthouses and public bathing areas (not always accessible, depending on tidal conditions).

The dike consists mainly of metal structures and wooden floors. Very pleasant to stroll around and enjoy!

She’ll take you to Bull Island, where you can try out the Dublin-Royal Golf Club, a popular course for green enthusiasts! A few shops for shopping or drinks…
