Bray is the longest established seaside town in Ireland and enjoys a 1 mile long beachfront promenade. The beach is dominated by Bray Head and its summit cross, with the Sugar Loaf and the Wicklow mountains in the background.

The scenic Cliff Walk from Bray Head to Greystones offers walkers a feast of views on the way. Bray is a busy urban centre that retains some of the reminders of distant medieval past. Much of its out-standing Georgian and Victorian architecture still remain.

Bray Heritage Centre & Tourist Office
The Old Courthouse was erected in 1841 and is now home to the tourist information office and heritage centre. There is a permanent exhibition called “from Strongbow to Steam” which covers the history of Bray from 1173 to the coming of the railway in 1853. Meet “John the Mad”, viking warrior from the 14th century, ride the steam train along Bray Head and understand 19th century life in Bray.
