All berths are fully serviced with electricity and water and the marina boasts up to date facilities including Wi-Fi. The natural beauty of your surroundings and warm welcome will make you want to return again and again.
When you visit Greystones, you can swim at your leisure at one of the two great beaches; you can have your picnic and watch the world go by. There is a pebble north beach near the harbour and then the south beach, which is sandy and about half a mile long, ideal for children making sandcastles.
There is also a playground beside the beach, toilet facilities and a lifeguard during the summer season.
The Bray and Greystones cliff walk is a challenging 7 kilometre trek that could take about two hours but has great rewards for your efforts as you take in the stunning view of the sea and coastline.
The route normally begins from the Bray Head Hotel on Bray promenade, the pathway rising to 100 metres at its highest point. Then having rounded Brayhead you walk near Greystones beach, on to Greystones harbour where you can relax and enjoy the view.
You can also do the walk in reverse and get a DART back to your starting point.
Another picturesque, tranquil area for walkers is the Black Walk leading up to Kindlestown Park Woods which has a vast array of trees, shrubs and wildlife. It has been a recreational area for generations of people in Greystones and is a perfect opportunity to experience the woodland and the coast.
Greystones is a well known spot for shore angling. There are three main areas for shore fishing, the pier and the rocks to the east and south of the village onto sand. The north beach is a popular fishing venue and small boats can be launched from the harbour for sea fishing too.
The Greystones Ridge Angling Club, founded in 1959, holds tournament events throughout the year.
