About Bray
Bray is a well-established coastal town in north County Wicklow, stretching from the Irish Sea towards the foothills of the Wicklow Mountains and adjoining south Dublin locations including Shankill and Loughlinstown. It has a lively, varied character: traditional residential streets sit alongside newer housing, a busy town centre and the Victorian-era seafront, while Bray Head and the promenade provide an immediate sense of landscape and open space. Families are served by a broad selection of primary and secondary schools in and around the town, with Bray School Project among the local education options and Michael Doherty School Supplies serving school communities. Commuting is a major part of local life, with Bray Station providing DART and mainline rail services towards Dublin, south County Dublin and Wicklow, while Dublin Bus routes and the N11/M11 corridor offer additional connections. The town centre has supermarkets, independent shops, cafés and restaurants, with pubs and evening venues concentrated around Main Street and the seafront; nearby coastal villages and south Dublin also expand the choice. People’s Park, Bray Head, the seafront and the cliff walk towards Greystones are key leisure attractions, and facilities such as Park Academy and local sports clubs support an active community. Bray Station Car Park, the Maxol Service Station on Vevay Road, Park Lodge, Parklands Office Park, 3 Store and Boghall Pharmacy are useful recognisable points within the wider neighbourhood.
