Barges on the River Liffey in Dublin, Ireland


Barges on the River Liffey move through the center of Dublin, Ireland’s capital city. The River Liffey flows approximately 125 kilometers (78 miles) from the Wicklow Mountains to Dublin Bay, dividing Dublin into the Northside and Southside. Historically, the river has played a key role in Dublin’s trade and transport, with cargo vessels and barges navigating its tidal waters. Today, boats remain visible along the waterfront, passing under well-known bridges such as the Ha’penny Bridge and Samuel Beckett Bridge. The River Liffey continues to be a central geographic, economic, and cultural feature of Dublin, Ireland.
