The Cliffs of Moher Tour
Discover the Cliffs
The Cliffs of Moher are one of Ireland’s most visited natural attractions. They stretch for 8km (5miles), as the crow flies, along the Atlantic coast of County Clare in the west of Ireland. They reach an impressive 214m (702 feet) at their highest point at Knockardakin just north of O’Brien’s Tower and are a must visit for any tour in Ireland.
The Burren takes its name from the Irish word ‘bhoireann’ meaning, ‘a stony place’ or ‘a rocky place’, which is a good description for this limestone plateau. The rough, intriguing and attractive landscape was formed 320 million years ago under a tropical sea. Later it was shaped by ice, hard weather and, of course, man and his beasts.
