The Cliffs of Moher are a popular site along the west coast of Ireland, and it's easy to see why.
Thanks for looking!
'The Cliffs of Moher (/ˈmʌhər/; Irish: Aillte an Mhothair)[1] are sea cliffs located at the southwestern edge of the Burren region in County Clare, Ireland.[2][3] They run for about 14 kilometres (9 miles). At their southern end, they rise 120 metres (390 ft) above the Atlantic Ocean at Hag's Head, and, 8 kilometres (5 miles) to the north, they reach their maximum height of 214 metres (702 ft) just north of O'Brien's Tower,[4] a round stone tower near the midpoint of the cliffs, built in 1835 by Sir Cornelius O'Brien,[2][5] then continue at lower heights. The closest settlements are the villages of Liscannor 6 km (4 miles) to the south, and Doolin 7 km (4 miles) to the north.' - wiki

The day we decided to go visit Etretat was really foggy. At first we wondered if we were going to see the cliffs at all. In the end, the fog cleared up a bit and what remained added to the view.

Eagle Cliff Falls is a real gem. There is very little foot traffic so I had the falls pretty much to myself for a photoshoot. It is located in Montour Falls, NY. See more at RandyRobertsPhotograpy.com

Land's End (Cornish: Penn an Wlas or Pedn an Wlas) is a headland and small settlement in western Cornwall. It is the most westerly point of mainland Cornwall and England. It is on the Penwith peninsula, about eight miles (13 km) west-southwest of Penzance.
It was commercialised in the early 1990s with lots of new buildings and visitor facilities on the top of the granite cliffs. In those days it was extremely expensive to visit, and I regarded it as a rip-off. These days it is much cheaper to visit and it costs £3 to park all day.
On a clear day it is possible to see the Scilly Isles in the far distance, some 28 miles away.
