The Dún Laoghaire Baths
The Dún Laoghaire Baths re-opened in December 2022 after significant redevelopment of the facility. The works included the refurbishment of the baths pavilion, the construction of a new 35m jetty with built in seating, the installation of the Roger Casement statue, a simple changing shelter, the refurbished Edwardian gazebo in the beach garden and a new walkway from Newtownsmith.
The newly re-opened will facilitate swimming, water sports, and events.
In 2023, a new public café, artists’ studios and new lifeguard facilities will open in the Pavilion building.
