About Seapoint

Seapoint at Monkstown is a historic Blue Flag bathing place on the south Dublin coast, a flat, sheltered swimming spot beside a Martello tower rather than a sandy beach. Lifeguarded in summer and beloved by Dublin's sea swimmers year-round, it has slipways, showers and changing facilities. There is no car park, but it is a short walk from Salthill & Monkstown DART station.
