Visiting Bray

By María Gabriela Marcano

Ireland is an island known for its green landscapes. It has a magic mix of mountainous areas and the sea, as seen in Bray. Bray is one of the most famous cities in Ireland where you can find wonderful beaches, it is the perfect place to share with friends or your partner.

Three reasons to visit Bray:

1. The beach:

It is a city situated on the east coast of Ireland and near to Dublin, famous for its beautiful beach, which is 1.6 km in length. For the Irish it is a pleasure to spend a day on the beach in Bray, especially in summer, when you can escape the cold and have a fun time with family. If you love the sand, sun and sea, you can sunbathe and swim in the refreshing sea.

2. The food:

Bray is famous for its delicious food. Here you can taste the best ‘fish and chips’, one of Ireland’s most traditional dishes. I advise you to visit some of the seafood restaurants which offer a varied and delicious menu. And for dessert, you can eat ice cream or crepes.

3. The mountain:

After spending the day on the beach and eating delicious food, you can then take a hill or mountain walk where you can sit and read a book, sleep, talk, play with your family, exercise or embrace your girlfriend or boyfriend while watching the wonders of Bray from above.

Finally, there are several ways to get to Bray from Dublin. You can go from the city center by car, it takes around 20 minutes. If you have a bike you can cycle and enjoy the beautiful views. By bus you can take numbers 45a, 84a and 145 the price is 2.50 euros or you can take the DART for 4.20 euros. I recommend that you go by train so you can enjoy the journey with a beautiful view of the beaches Ireland has to offer…
