What to expect
The family friendly Kerry Cliffs Walk is a 2.1 km easy out and back trail for all ages located near Portmagee, County Kerry, Ireland. Boasting beautiful views over the Atlantic Ocean, this rugged and wild coastline is spectacular in any weather, whilst on clear days Puffin Island and The Skelligs can be seen - one of only three UNESCO world heritage sites in Ireland. It’s a favourite spot for bird spotting, including Puffins, Choughs and Razorbills which use the cliffs for nesting.
There is a 4€ entrance fee which includes access to off-road parking, toilet facilities and the Kerry Cliffs café with indoor and outdoor seating with panoramic views.
