The Forty Foot is a promontory on the southern tip of Dublin Bay at Sandycove, County Dublin, Ireland, from which people have been swimming in the Irish Sea (dubbed “the snotgreen sea” by author James Joyce) all year round for some 250 years. It’s a bit of a tradition to take a dip on Christmas Day, if you dare, considering that the temperature may be in the single digits. To get there, jump on the Dart (train) from Dublin city centre, get out at Dún Laoghaire and walk all along the coast to Sandycove beach and the Forty Foot.
