Sightseeing

One of Ireland’s most famous sights, the Cliffs of Moher are entirely vertical and the cliff edge is abrupt. On a clear day the views are tremendous, with the Aran Islands etched on the waters of Galway Bay. From the cliff edge you can just hear the booming far below as the waves crash and gnaw at the soft shale and sandstone. With a due-west exposure, sunset is the best time to visit. "Lonely Planet". Opening times. March 8:00 am – 19:00 pm. April 8:00 am – 19.00 pm. May to August 8:00 am – 21:00 pm. September 8:00 am – 19:00 pm. V95 KN9T 45 mins car drive 38km along the scenic Wild Atlantic Way.
