The Cliffs of Moher are Ireland's most visited natural attraction, a 8-kilometre wall of sandstone and shale rising 214 metres above the Atlantic Ocean in County Clare, offering one of the most dramatic coastal views in Europe with the Aran Islands visible offshore and the Twelve Bens of Connemara on the northern horizon. The cliffs are easily visited on day tours from Galway, making the city the most popular base for this spectacular excursion. Hotels in Galway offer a vibrant city base from which to explore the Burren, the Aran Islands, and the Cliffs of Moher.
