About Killiney
Killiney is an affluent, largely residential coastal locality in south County Dublin, positioned between Dalkey, Glenageary, Ballybrack and Loughlinstown. It is known for substantial homes, mature greenery and elevated streets, with Killiney Hill providing memorable views across Dublin Bay and the Wicklow Mountains. The area has a peaceful, village-like feel, although residents are close to the busier shopping and services of Ballybrack, Dun Laoghaire and Cabinteely. Families have access to well-regarded primary and secondary schools in the surrounding south Dublin area, while several Dublin Bus routes and Killiney DART station support commuting towards the city and Bray. Local everyday shopping is available at Ballybrack Shopping Centre and nearby Tesco, with larger retail and dining choices in Dalkey, Dun Laoghaire and Stillorgan. Pubs and restaurants are concentrated in neighbouring Dalkey, Glasthule and Dun Laoghaire, including a broad choice of cafés, seafood restaurants and traditional bars. Killiney Beach, Killiney Hill Park and the coastal walks around Dalkey and Sandycove provide excellent leisure options, while local sports clubs and community facilities serve the wider district.
