Fishing near Malahide, Co. Dublin

Malahide sits on the north Dublin coast in County Fingal, where the Broadmeadow Estuary meets the Irish Sea. The estuary below the railway viaduct is the centrepiece of local angling, drawing shore anglers for mullet, flounder, eels, bass and sea trout, while charter boats operating out of Malahide run offshore trips for cod, ray, tope, mackerel and more. The nearby Velvet Strand at Portmarnock and Rogerstown Estuary extend the shore fishing options along this stretch of coastline.
