Bray bristles with life all year around
Charming Bray has been bristling with life since the very first travelers came to enjoy its shingle beachfronts and grassy headlands in the 1800s. Things have changed since then, but the homey taverns sloshing with stout, the half-timbered facades, and the handsome Victorian architecture all still remain. Bray vacation rentals shoulder their way above the town's boat-bobbing harbor, or loom on the wind blasted cliffs of Greystones, each providing a taste of local Irish life, and a gateway to the fabled mountains and coves of County Wicklow.
Enjoy the bounties of the sea in Bray
If you've booked one of the hearty Irish cottages or Bray vacation rentals close to the Wicklow coastline, then it's likely you'll be spending your vacation bracing blustery winds on the clifftops, or looking for splashing dolphins, seals, and whales from the headlands. Long walks on the beach can be interspersed with frothy pints in local Gaelic taverns, too, while more adventures await in the nearby Wicklow Mountains _ think paintballing, hiking, camping, horse riding, and the like.
Bray and its regal Victorian relics
Bray boomed in the middle of the 17th and 18th centuries with well-to-do resort goers out of nearby Dublin. Many raised elegant mansions and buildings in the town, like that grand Town Hall, or the neo-Gothic Killruddery House _ watch out for the film crews there. Back in the center and Bray Harbour is peppered with birding spots, historic pubs, and charming fishing boats, while the town's esplanade quickly turns into Bray Head and the wild clifftop walks there. For rainy days, the National Aquarium Sealife Centre is a safe bet, offering encounters with stingrays and poisonous stonefish.
Bray is blissful in the summer
Bray is a resort town at heart. That means it draws sun seekers and beach lovers from the cobbled streets of downtown Dublin when the weather's hot. Search for Bray vacation rentals between June and August to be in with the best chance of long, lazy days on the shingle and sand, or summer walks over the County Wicklow headlands. Spring can also be a great time to visit, especially if you want to witness the beautiful purple heather blooms on the heaths of the Wicklow Mountains in April and May.
Bray is where the Wicklow Mountains meet the sea
Bray is buffeted by the icy rollers of the Irish Sea to the east, which crashes against the rugged, rocky cliffs of Bray Head all the way south from the town center to Greystones. Meanwhile, the stony grykes and fells of the Wicklow Mountains National Park dominates the land to the west of town. There are plenty of reasons that wilderness is one of the main outdoors attractions in all of Ireland. It's got ancient heaths and bluebell meadows, mysterious mountain peaks that have inspired tales of Irish folklore, and mirror-like lakes that shimmer under the cloudy skies _ it's a walking mecca.
