When you make your pilgrimage to the Cliffs of Moher, you’re coming for
one of two things: the staggering height of the rock face, and the even
more staggering beauty of the views from the top. Soaring to 702ft, the
striated stone reaches its long fingers southward to counties Cork and
Kerry beyond, with a keen eye from O'Brien's Tower even able to spot the
Aran Islands to the north. Of course, one of the most unique and precious aspects of the cliffs is
the local wildlife that calls them home. Those with a love of
bird-watching will be spoiled here: think countless sad-eyed puffins;
elegantly dressed razorbills; chattering kittiwakes; and if you’re
lucky, even an elusive peregrine falcon.
