Although a certain distance away from Dublin, the Cliffs of Moher, situated in the east of the island, deserve a visit.The distance from Dublin is about 270 km, but the interregional roads are rather narrow and disconnected, so it'scalled for to allow half a days travel.
The cliffs are a natural spectacle, opening up to the ocean from a breath taking height. Stairs and ramps connect the parking and the pay area of the cliffs, which open up for kilometres along the sea.
A strong wind almost always beats down on the coast, but despite this even on a misty day the scenery is worth the trip. In the case of rain, it's possible to watch the storm coming in from the sea from a unique and original viewpoint.
The parts of the cliff which can be reached on foot are delimited by a railing and signposts. If you wish its possible to go round the railings and get even closer to the precipice, but it's at your own risk and danger.
