This huge beach (some say 18km, some say 23) is beautiful. I have never been to such a peaceful secluded beach in the Med - lovely.
If you are feeling energetic take a walk from the 'town' centre past the bread and water restaurant and follow the road. Eventually you come to the sand dunes. Time it right and take a bottle of wine to enjoy a beautiful sunset.
Dublin has several good art galleries. My favourite were the Douglas Hyde Gallery at Trinity College, the Gallery of Photography at Temple bar and the National Gallery's Millennium Wing near Merrion Square.
