If you’re planning a trip to Dublin, you’ll be spoiled for choice with so many things to do here. While couple’s breaks revolve around shopping, eating, drinking, and sightseeing, it’s a little different when you’re enjoying a family getaway. You’ll have a much busier schedule trying to balance keeping everyone entertained and fed while making sure it’s a relaxed and enjoyable trip for everyone. A break in Dublin has endless possibilities from educational museum visits to fun-filled picnics in the park. Before you plan dozens of things to do in Dublin, book family-style accommodation to make sure everyone is comfortable.

Explore the Great Outdoors
With the arrival of Spring, we’re excited for longer days and brighter evenings. Enjoy the sunshine and warmer weather while it lasts by making the most of the great outdoors with your family. There are a dozen parks around Dublin including the beautiful St Stephens Green and Phoenix Park, close to the city centre. Closer to home, Cabinteely Park has a playground, adventure walks and woodlands to explore. The Dublin coastline is a short distance by DART and Howth, Bray or Dun Laoghaire are all great spots for a family lunch and a walk along the waterside. Nearby, Airfield is a green oasis with gardens parks and farmland to discover.Educational Fun
While we always want our children to enjoy themselves and have fun, it’s even better when they are learning as they play. Dublin has half a dozen excellent museums that and interesting and educational for even the smallest minds. The National Museum of Ireland, Collins Barracks, Irish Modern Art Museum and the National Gallery are all free of charge to enter and many have child-friendly exhibits and workshops during school holidays. The Explorium has just reopened after a (too) long hiatus and it’s a welcomed part of the Sandyford neighbourhood once again. Hailed as the home of sports, science, technology and adventure, it’s a guaranteed great afternoon for families with children of all ages and no two visits are ever the same.
Stay out of the Rain.
While we’re excited for dryer days, the Irish weather often has other plans. It is always best to have a plan B with indoor activities, so you don’t get caught in the rain. Dundrum Town Centre is a great place for shopping and dining with a dozen family-friendly restaurants to try out. For little kids, there is a play centre called Funky Monkeys where they can wear themselves out having fun for hours. There is also a cinema showing the best kids’ movies – an ideal way to spend a couple of hours indoors. For older families, Jumpzone is a great place to keep active while staying out of the rain.Book your family getaway in PREMIER SUITES serviced apartment accommodation in Sandyford Dublin and we’ll take the stress out of travelling with children.
