The Rat Pack played at the theatre in 2002, and Doldrum Bay premièred here in 2003. The house is now shared between the London School of Economics (during the day) and Sadler's Wells evening dance productions. The Peacock Theatre is most noted as the home of one of the West End's most unusual ghosts, a dolphin commonly known as 'Flipper'.

Howth has an extensive and varied coastline, and there are steep sea cliffs around parts, especially on the north coast. Key points on the coast, clockwise from Sutton, include Cush Point, Claremont Strand, the small headland at Howth village, Balscadden Bay, Kilrock, the Great and Little Baily, Lion's Head, Doldrum Bay, the Needles, Drumleck Point, Red Rock and Sutton Strand. Due to the shape of the landform, and its rocky nature, with thin soil covering, Howth features multiple streams, several fast-running streams, due to hard rock under a thin soil layer. These include the Bloody StreamCoulcour Brook, the Boggeen Stream, and the Offington Stream, and the Whitewater Brook, the Balsaggart Stream, and the Carrickbrack and Santa Sabina Streams.

According to literary review aggregator LitHub, the book received a slightly larger number of negative reviews than it did positive ones. Jason Sheehan of NPR criticized the book's emphasis on exposition and digressions into discussions of the environment, politics, and orbital mechanics, suggesting that Robinson's approach was "no way to tell a story". Writing for The Guardian, Chris Beckett praised Robinson's depiction of the relationship between Fredericks and Qi, calling it "a delightful and touching depiction of two people who would normally have nothing to do with each other, finding a way of getting along". The Times criticized the "great indigestible tracts of expository dialogue" and "horrible doldrum of narrative drift", but concluded that Red Moon "confirms its author's status as a sci-fi master".

Butler is known for constructing a complex series of concrete and stone steps, pathways and diving boards on a headland known as Lions Head within Doldrum Bay on the south face of Howth Head, County Dublin, between Drumleck, Censure and the Baily (site of the Baily Lighthouse). The remains of these structures can still be seen and partially used as of 2019, although the area has been somewhat eroded by the elements, as well as partially demolished and cordoned off by Fingal County Council. The area cannot be accessed easily on foot, or at all by car, and cannot be accessed by boat in rough weather, which leads to a significant risk for swimmers who get into difficulty. For these reasons the area has not become as popular as, for example, the Forty Foot, for swimmers or cliff- divers.
