Beschreibung
Dun Laoghaire Harbour is a leisure marina and commerical harbour in south Dublin with two long piers. Along with nearby Scotsmans Bay, it offers long walks and chances to see a variety of gulls, terns and waders all year round. It is one of the best places to see Schwarzkopfmöwe and Meerstrandläufer in Dublin. The two piers offer multiple viewing points for coastal species within the harbour and beyond in South Dublin Bay.
Eistaucher and Sterntaucher are frequently seen in winter and it is possible to photograph them at close range when they venture into the harbour itself. Prachttaucher can also be seen here occasionally. Haubentaucher, Trauerente and Mittelsäger can be ecountered beyond the harbour, particularly from the west pier. The east pier is better known for its waders including Meerstrandläufer, Steinwälzer and Sandregenpfeifer.
Terns can be seen here in the summer and there are also breeding Gryllteiste within the harbour. Rothalstaucher and flocks of Zwergmöwe have been observed here in recent years and is also a reliable spot for Hausrotschwanz in winter. Scotsmans Bay is also worth walking along towards Forty Foot for gulls and terns, particulalry for occasional large numbers of Schwarzkopfmöwe.
