Dunamara

Dublin's answer to the Bay of Naples — a comparison the Victorians made first, naming roads Vico, Sorrento, and San Elmo after their Italian inspirations. From Killiney Hill's obelisk, the view sweeps from Bray Head to Howth in a single breathtaking arc, while the coastal properties below attract those who can afford to wake up to it daily. Rocky coves, wild swimming spots, and a sense of splendid elevation make this south Dublin's most dramatic address.
