City of Dublin

Public transportation such as buses make it easy to get around the city to shops, cafes, and restaurants. There are trains, trams, and bikes, but walking is also a great way to get around the city.

Dublin’s weather is mild and stays consistent in temperature with slight fluctuations. You can count on it to be rainy one-third of the year but don’t count the sunshine out. Packing layers and rain gear is a good idea when heading to Dublin.

Dublin is 5 hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time and 8 hours ahead of Pacific Standard Time.

While English is an official language spoken in Dublin, you will also hear Gaeilge, the second official language, spoken in shops and pubs around the city.
