Beautiful! I have a torn meniscus and was worried about walking up the steps, but they have a golf cart available for free to take you up and down as needed. We came with a tour and got our tickets upon arrival in January. There was no wait. Loved the views!

Amazing to see, especially if this are your first cliffs to see. We only had about 2 hours here, and we didn't walk very far in each direction, but as guide has mentioned you can walk for hours, mainly in direction left of visitors building, or you could just sit at top for hours, pretty peaceful and relaxing place (if not to many tourists of course). In visitors center you also have a restaurant, smaller food/drinks shop, gift shop, some historic items and information about the Cliffs and life around it, and also a special cinema room to see and feel (winds, rain) from different animal perspective living on or around the Cliffs, interesting to see. Would definitely recommend a visit or guided tour to the Cliffs.

One of the most visited sites in Ireland, and it does not disappoint. The views are just amazing and one can easily spend 2-3hrs walking around the cliff. There are few shops and cafes in the area also. Its an easy day trip from Dublin by bus or car. Highly recommend to visit if you are travelling to Ireland. Interesting Fact: one of the Harry Potter movies was also filmed here.

One of Ireland's most famous spots, and for good reason—absolutely breathtaking. I was lucky to visit on a day when the cliffs were relatively visible (which isn’t always the case due to fog and rain). I’d recommend wearing sturdy clothes, especially shoes you’re not too worried about, as the paths were quite muddy and wet when I was there. There are well-marked trails along the coast, free restrooms, and gift shops where you can pick up a souvenir or keepsake.

Lovely place for a walk and some scenery. The southern path was closed in November 2024, but there’s plenty to walk on the northern trail. You can also enjoy the cliffs without going too far from the visitor centre. £12 for parking and entry. Leave plenty of time to visit and travel. The roads are winding and the GPS will usually underestimate the drive time.

You have to go to see the beauty of it. We had beautiful weather and it was so peaceful and just spectacular! We went on a day tour so it was even better because of the tour guide, Sarah and the excellent Driver Billy. This was through Viator. Sarah was so personable, extremely knowledgeable, this was a big group and I noticed she took the time to personally interact with everyone! She was FABULOUS!!! Billy was also great and most importantly he kept everyone safe with his precise driving skills on those narrow windy roads. What a great team! Highly recommend!!!

Pictures do not do this place justice. Make it early before the tour buses flood in. Can get very busy very quickly. Take your time there is much to see. Could’ve spent hours upon hours here.

Well worth the drive and visit. My mom and I had spectacular weather, mostly sunny with little wind. We purchased tickets at the entrance rather in advance since we weren’t totally sure about our itinerary and how jet lagged we’d be after arriving. We visited the first week of September and arrived mid afternoon. During peak summer you’d probably want to purchase in advance. Huge bonus points: they have golf carts to take people with mobility issues (like my mom) up to the lookout and back from the parking lot, all for free. For anyone walking plan a couple of hours to explore. They also have some interesting exhibits at the visitor center.
