00:00So today we're taking a little trip out to Hoth. It's this gorgeous seaside village just outside
00:05Dublin and honestly it's one of those places that instantly puts you in a good mood. The moment you
00:11get off the dart train or bus you're hit with that fresh sea air and the sound of gulls doing
00:18their thing over the harbour. Boats everywhere, people wandering around with coffee and if it's
00:23the weekend the market is buzzing with food stalls and handmade bits and friendly hungry seals
00:29begging for food in the harbour sunshine. It's just a lovely vibe. Now let's talk food because Hoth does
00:36not mess around. If you want something a bit fancy with unreal sea views, aqua is the spot. It's right
00:42at the end of the pier and the views alone are worth the trip. For something cozy and super fresh,
00:48the Ore House is always a winner. Proper seafood, no fuss. If you're in the mood for classic fish and
00:54chips, Bischoff's is the go-to. Grab a box, sit by the water and just enjoy while keeping an eye
01:02on the
01:03seagulls because they're bold. King's Citric is great if you're feeling a bit more refined and Wright's is
01:09iconic for smoked salmon and great views. And we must not forget the Abbey Tavern, one of Ireland's
01:16oldest pub restaurants dating from the 16th century where the food never disappoints. Once you're fed,
01:23it's time to walk it off. And Howith Head is perfect for that. The cliff walk is stunning. You get
01:30these
01:30huge views of the coastline, the sea stretching out forever, and of course the Bailey Lighthouse,
01:36which looks like it was designed just to be photographed. If you head up toward the summit,
01:41the whole bay opens up. You can see Dublin City, the harbour, even the Wicklow Mountains on a clear
01:48day. It's one of those spots where you just stop and go, yeah, this is pretty amazing. The hiking trails
01:54will exercise your legs, and the tall gorse in bloom is stunningly beautiful. And as the day winds down,
02:01Howith gets this really calm, golden glow. People settle into the restaurants, the harbour quiets down,
02:07and it just feels peaceful. Howith is one of those places that mixes great food, beautiful views,
02:13and that classic Irish charm, and it always leaves you wanting to come back. We have regular guided day
