Ireland’s Inishmore Island boasts some of the country’s most beautiful cliffs: the Cliffs of Aran. Magnificent, they have the originality of being ultra-cut, almost like a geometric cut. They seem to plunge at right angles to the ocean, with magnificent grey granite rocks. A show not to be missed!

Forget the Cliffs of Moher or the Slieve League for a moment. The Cliffs of Aran are also well worth a visit! Because they offer breathtaking, steep ocean views. Breathtaking!
When the weather’s fine, they’re impressively majestic… while when the weather’s poor, they convey a darker, absolutely magnificent mood!
Left in their natural state, they are among the most beautiful natural sites in Ireland. But beware: it’s also a dangerous place! Here, there are few bodyguards, and the void is always there! Also, avoid walking too close to the shore: a gust of wind, a careless selfie and the circumstances can be dramatic! Many accidents have already occurred as a result of taking unnecessary risks.
If you’re feeling cautious, note the possibility of walking along the cliffs from end to end. Take a sweater and a windbreaker, as the ocean air is quite invigorating! You’re in for a real breath of fresh air!
The surrounding countryside is magnificent. Take your time and visit Fort Dun Aengus, a prehistoric Irish fort built on the edge of these famous cliffs. The setting is fascinating!
