Really good pizza according to our most recent Canadian guests. They walked up to it from our house as they wanted somewhere local. A super pub called Slatterys is beside it as is the Aviva Stadium.

A 20 minute walk from our house it is a long beach with a Martello tower on it. My dog Sophie loves swimming here when the tide is in. It is tidal and goes out very far but comes in fast so take care!
