Skerries (Irish: Na Sceirí) is an area in County Dublin, Ireland.

Skerries has four islands off its coast. They include Shenick Island, St Patrick's, Cote and Rockabill. On Shenick Island you will find a Martello tower, one of a number of defensive towers erected along the Irish coast by the occupying British. When the tide is at its lowest one might see, while walking along the beautiful sandy south beach, people crossing to the island, perhaps to climb into the tower, or perhaps to enjoy the swarms of sea birds that know the island as home. The other islands are harder to reach, but with a bit of determination one may convince one of many boat-owners to take one across.
