The Cliffs of Moher are an absolute must-see while in Ireland and, as the most visited natural attraction in the country, they are pretty accessible. It’s easy to find a day tour from Dublin or Galway to get to the cliffs, but if you are planning on renting a vehicle for your Ireland vacation, then I recommend doing your own tour. With an expansive visitor centre, tons of walking trails, and beautiful views steeped in myth and legend, you can easily make a day out of this beautiful area.

To get some of the most stunning views of Bray, look no further than Bray Head. The hill dominates the end of the promenade and the stone cross atop the hill is an iconic feature of the town. While the climb is not particularly daunting, some parts can be a bit of a challenge and require some scrambling. But if the hike up doesn’t leave you breathless the views sure will! At the top of Bray Head there is a stone cross which was placed there in 1950 during the Holy Year. From here you get a magnificent panoramic vista of Bray, North East Wicklow and Dublin Bay. You can also see some of Bray Head’s neighbouring mountains, the Great and Little Sugar Loaf and Carrickgollogan, locally known as Kathy Gallagher.
