About Dublin Bay Language Institute
Dublin Bay Language Institute trades the city bustle for sea air, set in the harbour town of Dún Laoghaire just south of the centre. It's a favourite for juniors and young adults, pairing morning lessons with afternoons of sport, excursions and coast walks.
Accredited by ACELS and a member of MEI, the school keeps classes small (10–14 students) and its groups genuinely international, so English is the only common language from your very first morning.
