Greystones, Coastal town in County Wicklow, Ireland

The seaside resort stretches along two beaches on Ireland's east coast, featuring a stony North Beach and a sandy South Beach with Blue Flag status.

Initially a small fishing village, Greystones expanded significantly in the 1970s with new housing estates and received train connections to Dublin in 1855.

The YARN Storytelling Festival brings together local artisans and storytellers, adding to the creative expressions within the Irish coastal community.

Regular train services connect Greystones to Bray and Dublin, making it accessible for both residents and visitors exploring County Wicklow.

The town received its name from a half-mile stretch of grey stones situated between its two main beaches on the seafront.
