快速信息: The headland stretches 10 kilometers into the Atlantic, offering one of Ireland's longest continuous sea cliffs. Sea birds like fulmars and kittiwakes nest here by the thousands, creating a natural spectacle.
亮点: Spot dozens of rare wildflowers like the mountain avens around rocky outcrops, especially enchanting in early summer. The cliffs plunge 300 meters into crashing waves, painting a dramatic scene that changes with every shift in weather.
