Take a bracing walk along the Cliffs of Moher
You may recognise these iconic cliffs from various films (including The Princess Bride & Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince).

With lots of footpaths to explore and seabirds like puffins and gannets to watch out for, you’ll get more than a dose of fresh air.
Visit the Medieval Ruins of Blarney Castle
