Dublin: Skerries Mills Guided Tour｜Ireland

Explore Skerries Mills, a unique heritage site in Europe with 2 sail mills, a watermill, and a bakery. Take a guided tour of the site, enjoy a meal at the cafe, and visit the craft shop and gallery.

Admire the Great 5 Sail Mill capturing views of coastal landmarks, a testament to wind power and human engineering. The 4 Sail Windmill is raised on the site of an ancient fort. Climb up this thatched dome mill dating from the 16th century and visit the Waterwheel with its heritage stretching back to the early monastic site of Holmpatrick.

Tours operate year-round, and the Watermill building is open to the public 7 days each week, offering a cozy cafe with daily fresh baked goods, outdoor dining overlooking the community garden, a craft and gift shop, and a small gallery displaying local artworks. Skerries Mills is a not-for-profit social enterprise that aims to benefit the local community and preserve the fully restored mills.

Explore the picturesque Dublin Coastal Trail, with beautiful beaches, a harbor, and 3 national monuments. Skerries is a peaceful yet inspiring small town on the edge of County Dublin, traveling north. Activities include the Saint Patrick's Way and the Skerries Art Trail.

It is an idyllic half-day trip from Dublin City Centre or a stop-off between Dublin and Belfast for those seeking to explore more, and escape busy tourist attractions to engage with the community.
