Forty Foot

Forty Foot Dublin's best swimming hole. A quasi-spiritual home for those who come here throughout the year to jump, step or dive into the cold, refreshing water.

Did you know... There is no definite explanation for the origin of the name "Forty Foot". Some say it's the depth of the water, others that it may have been called the Forty Foot after the 42nd Highland Regiment of Foot, who were stationed there. What do you think?
