About Booterstown Marsh
Booterstown Marsh is a 4.3-hectare salt marsh nature reserve situated in south County Dublin, Ireland, between the coastal DART railway line and Rock Road. As the only salt marsh and bird sanctuary in south Dublin Bay, it represents a vital remnant of the extensive fringe marshlands that once stretched from Dublin city to Blackrock. The reserve is managed by An Taisce (The National Trust for Ireland) and serves as an important stopover for migratory birds traveling along the East Atlantic Flyway, while also supporting resident bird populations throughout the year.
