There are more than 130 named rivers and streams in the traditional County Dublin, Ireland, which comprises the city of Dublin and the surrounding counties of Dún Laoghaire–Rathdown, Fingal and South Dublin.
The rivers and streams are listed in one table, with systems such as the Liffey (and that of its major sub-system, the Dodder), Broadmeadow, Tolka and Shanganagh identified within the table. The name of each watercourse, the location of its mouth or confluence point and whether, for tributaries, they enter their parent on the right or left bank, is noted. Unnamed tributaries are not included. Most are shown on the back cover map of the Doyle reference, and those in the central area are shown on the main and section-specific maps in the Sweeney reference.

The River Dodder is one of the three main rivers in Dublin, Ireland, the others being the Liffey, of which the Dodder is the largest tributary, and the Tolka.
Rogerstown Estuary is a sea inlet and estuary in Ireland. It is situated just north of the Donabate-Portrane peninsula, and also south of Rush, on Ireland's east coast about 25 km (16 mi) north of Dublin. It is a designated nature reserve, Special Area of Conservation, and a Ramsar site.
The River Tolka, also once spelled Tolga, is one of Dublin's three main rivers, flowing from County Meath to Fingal within the old County Dublin, and through the north of Dublin city, Ireland. By flow of water, the Tolka is the second largest river in Dublin, following the Liffey, but runs more slowly than the Dodder.
Clonee is a village and a townland in County Meath, Ireland. It borders County Dublin to the east at the townlands of Huntstown and Littlepace, and is sometimes used in addresses for housing in those townlands. The River Tolka passes the village.
The River Camac is one of the larger rivers in Dublin and was one of four tributaries of the Liffey critical to the early development of the city.
Rockbrook is a small area, once site of a small settlement, now semi-suburban, in County Dublin, Ireland. It is in the local government area of South Dublin.
Santry River is a small watercourse on the north side of Dublin city, one of the forty or so watercourses monitored by Dublin City Council. It runs, mostly unculverted, from Harristown and Dubber near Dublin Airport, through Santry and Coolock, reaching the sea at Raheny, in a lagoon area inshore of Bull Island.
The Naniken River is a minor river on the north side of Dublin city, Ireland, one of more than forty watercourses monitored by Dublin City Council. It is culverted for its upper course, visible in St Anne's Park for its entire lower course, and causes flooding somewhere along its line most years. The river flows entirely within the jurisdiction of Dublin City Council.
Booterstown Marsh, a Nature Reserve, is located in Booterstown, County Dublin, between the coastal railway line and the Rock Road. It is an area of salt marsh and muds, with brackish water. It includes the only salt marsh, and the only bird sanctuary, in south Dublin Bay. It lies just outside the boundary of Dublin city, and just north of Booterstown DART station and its car park.
The River Slang, also known as the Dundrum Slang or the Dundrum River, a tributary of the River Dodder, is a stream which rises on Three Rock Mountain, County Dublin. It is in the local government area of Dún Laoghaire–Rathdown.
The Owendoher River is a small river in southern County Dublin, Ireland, the largest tributary of the River Dodder, and a part of the River Liffey system.
The Lyreen River is a small river in County Kildare, Ireland, a tributary of the Rye River (Ryewater), and ultimately of the River Liffey.
The River Delvin is a river of northern County Dublin, about 18 kilometres (11 mi) long and forming much of the Dublin-Meath boundary; it is thus largely under the responsibility of Fingal County Council, sometimes shared with Meath County Council.
Ballyboughal is a village and district in central Fingal within the traditional County Dublin, near the Naul. The name means the town of the staff, and a major relic, the Bachal Isu, was protected in this area until Strongbow moved it to Christ Church, Dublin. It is 4.4 km from Oldtown.
The Bradogue River is a small river in Dublin that rises in Cabra and flows into the River Liffey, with its primary outfall at Ormond Quay. It is culverted for its entire course.
The Broadmeadow River or Broad Meadow Water, is a river of County Meath and northern County Dublin, about 25 kilometres (16 mi) long. It opens into a wide estuary between Swords and Malahide, and reaches the open sea several kilometres downstream, north of Malahide village. One of the larger watercourses by volume in County Dublin, the Broadmeadow is a salmonid river, with several species of fish, including brown trout. It has many small, and a few larger, tributaries, notably the Ward River. It is under the responsibility of Meath County Council and Fingal County Council, as well as oversight of the Environmental Protection Agency.
The Ward River, sometimes historically the Swords River, is a watercourse of County Meath and northern County Dublin. About 18 kilometres (11 mi) long; it runs through the town of Swords and then flows into the Broadmeadow River. The Ward is a salmonid river, with several species of fish, including brown trout. It has several small tributaries. The river is in the jurisdictions of Meath and Fingal County Councils, as well as within the oversight of the Environmental Protection Agency.
The Ballyboghil River or Ballyboughal Water is a river in Fingal, in the traditional County Dublin, about 18 kilometres (11 mi) long, reaching the sea by way of the 4.5 kilometres (2.8 mi)-long estuary. One of the larger watercourses by volume in the north County Dublin, the Ballyboghil is a salmonid river, with several species of fish, including brown trout. It has many small tributaries, and one larger tributary system. It is under the responsibility of Fingal County Council, and the oversight of the Environmental Protection Agency.
The Glencullen River, often the Cookstown River below Enniskerry, is a watercourse of Dún Laoghaire–Rathdown and northern County Wicklow. It is about 11 kilometres (6.8 mi) long; it passes the nature reserve of Knocksink Wood and the village of Enniskerry, and joins the River Dargle near Bray. The river is in the jurisdictions of Dún Laoghaire–Rathdown and Wicklow County Councils, as well as within the purview of the Environmental Protection Agency.
The Mayne River, is a small watercourse of northern County Dublin. It forms from the merger of the Cuckoo and Turnapin Streams, which rise near Dublin Airport and help drain the airport campus. The river is in the jurisdiction of Fingal County Council and within the oversight of the Environmental Protection Agency.
