After reading through tripadvisor, I took some people's advice and went here to see the cliffs...instead of Moher. Let me tell you I was FAR from disappointment. This is one of the best kept secrets in Ireland. Hopefully it stays that way. Apart from it being free of charge, being able to roam around the cliffs (with no restrictions) really... More

We were so happy to add this to our list of cliff experiences in Ireland - it was wonderful! First of all, it's way, way, way out there - so just keep driving!

This place was amazing! We drove from Dingle out to loop head and the cliffs. The drive was beautiful and the cliffs are so much better than Moher. There weren't many people there and no fencing to take away from the beautiful scenery. Can't wait to go back! More

West of Kilrush and Kilkee, Ireland, on the west coast near Shannon is Loop Head peninsula. Before our trip I hadn't been able to find much info, but wanted to see Loop Head simply because of it's mention in the Nora Roberts Irish trilogy I read before our trip. We were all SO GLAD we went. About 15 km west... More
