40 Foot

The Forty Foot is part of the Pavilion Theatre complex, overlooking Dún Laoghaire harbour. Less than a mile further along the rock-strewn coast is Sandycove and the famous ‘Forty Foot’. Originally known as the ‘Forty Foot Hole’, this deep-water inlet was a ‘Gentlemen only’ bathing place for nearly 200 years. It is now a year-round venue open to all and the vagaries of the weather.
