Irish Road Trip Part III: Galway to Doolin

July 17-19

After concluding our stay in Galway, we embarked on the short drive (~75 km) to Doolin – gateway to the Cliffs of Moher.

Towering over the Atlantic Ocean, the Cliffs of Moher stretch 14 km starting at Doolin in the north and ending at Hags Head in the south. These cliffs reach a maximum height of 214 meters (~702 feet).

Despite the overcast and damp weather, we embraced the opportunity to witness the majestic cliffs from the sea.
