Why Go
Paths lead north and south from the visitor center, built into the hillside, along the edge of the cliffs. O'Brien's Tower, a lookout built in 1835, stands near the highest point, and below it the sea stack of Branaunmore rises from the waves, crowded with seabirds.
Tips
- Come in the last hours of daylight, when the crowds have gone and the sun sets over the sea.
