The East Pier Heritage Tour.

This 14-stop audio tour with full colour map along Dún Laoghaires renowned East Pier brings you on a 2-mile journey that includes tragedy, bravery, wildlife, poetry, literature and engineering, not to mention Victorian ladies under beautifully restored bandstands. Hear about the famous seals, what birds you see, and stories from Marconi to how the HSS satellite technology works, what an anemometer is, how Beckett got his inspiration, and why a Russian cannon with a Romanov seal is placed near the entrance overlooking Scotmans Bay.
