    Hi all

    just wondering if there is a need for a new sticky or to incorporate some ideas into an existing sticky?

    Something along the lines of more activities available in the area

    eg
    Swimming (SW) / Snorkeling (SN) / Diving (D) / Paddling (P)
    South beach (P), (SW) - lifeguard on duty between flags
    Cove (SN); (SW)
    Cove Steps (D) - high tide only; (SW)
    Rocks to north of Cove (D) - beware of lost fishing line/lure
    Mens (SN); no longer safe for diving with sand deposits, care needed
    North beach (SW)
    Hazards - South beach can have a sudden drop in depth due to sea currents. Look for hidden rocks at low tide on the Kilcoole side beyond the flags. Lost fishing lure and lines can be found at the shoreline.

    Similary
    Walks; - coastal; forest; cross-country, maybe with map or gps co-ordinates. Only in the last year did I come across the Kindlestown castle - bit of a ruin, yet something else we have let slide here. However the walk (cycle) up to the Octogon in Glen of the Downs woods is amazing.

    Jogging / Running - road; off road; coastal.
    Cycling - trails (forest); road with areas to be cautious - e.g. Belleview hill Bray side seems gentle enough but easy to pick up speed very fast, which as there is a junction at the bottom care needs to be taken.

    Maybe for the walks/cycles a reference to some of the cafe's without preferring any could be good too in order to allow folk to plan their breaks :)

    But maybe I am just rehashing some of the old threads here.
