    Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: The only thing that I can think of to pack for Dublin that you wouldn't necessarily pack for any other destination might be an umbrella. It rarely buckets here in Dublin but a frequent (constant) drizzle is not uncommon.

    Actually I found a waterproof coat more convenient because sometimes it gets windy and then an umbrella is more of a hinderance than a help.

    mind the rain

    Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: bring all the shoes you need. don't get caught having to buy a new pair. irish shoes are definitely on the ugly side

    Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: beach gear. you can safely leave it at home - the sea's far too cold to even thin about swimming in there. if u think u can brave the cold, still desist: thanks to sellafield, dublin beaches are quite unsafe and polluted

    Miscellaneous: def bring some raingear. an umbrella or a rainjacket: irish rain is soft, but it's abundant too.

    Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Always take an umbrella or something for the rain. In fact it´s more like a drizzling rain, not too bad really. We had a lot of sunshine in December and it has been quite warm.........

    Photo Equipment: Batteries are expensive, so make sure about yours before leaving home.....

    Miscellaneous: Don´t bring too many things , leave some space in your case to go shopping!!!

    Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear:
    RAINCOATS and UMBRELLAS - you never know

    As the saying goes: 'The Irish climate is lovely but the weather ruins it'.

    Miscellaneous: DUBLIN city guide by Lonely Planet

    I relied on it throughout my stay in Ireland and always got good info on where to eat, what to see, etc.

    It was a windy day

    Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Visiting Dublin in Winter should expect lots of rain and strong wind. A suitable wind breaker with water resistance features would be just perfect for the Irish merciless weather.

    gathering clouds over o'connell street

    Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Be sure you're prepared for rain. My raincoat was always with me and I used it a lot. The skies over Dublin can turn from calm and blue to gray and turbulent in a hurry.
