Depending on the visiting moment, the Cliffs of Moher in Ireland can seem either friendly and inviting or mysterious and cold. In any case, this is a place of breathtaking beauty, one that captures you completely. They basically have you at “hello”.

“Rising slowly from Doolin, the Cliffs of Moher ascend to over 700 feet (213 metres) stretching south for nearly five miles (8km) to Hags head. Being almost vertical, their sheer drop into the Atlantic ocean is a haven for sea birds. One can see the Aran Islands, Galway Bay, as well as The Twelve Pins and the Maum Turk Mountains to the north in Connemara and Loop Head to the South, the top is never tiresome.” (more information here)

When visiting the Cliffs of Moher, one can explore the local caves, go fishing, surf, visit the tower, take a bike ride on the edge and simply admire the amazing landscapes.  You can find accommodation online- there are a few sites especially dedicated to this area. Here is a place to get you started.
