The Cliffs of Moher (Irish: Aillte an Mhothair) are sea cliffs located at the southwestern edge of the Burren region in County Clare, Ireland. They run for about 14 kilometres. At their southern end, they rise 120 metres (390 ft) above the Atlantic Ocean at Hag's Head, and, eight kilometres to the north, they reach their maximum height of 214 metres (702 ft) just north of O'Brien's Tower, a round stone tower near the midpoint of the cliffs, built in 1835 by Sir Cornelius O'Brien, then continue at lower heights. The closest settlements are Liscannor (6 km south) and Doolin (7 km north).

 

From the cliffs, and from atop the tower, visitors can see the Aran Islands in Galway Bay, the Maumturks and Twelve Pins mountain ranges to the north in County Galway, and Loop Head to the south. The cliffs rank among the most visited tourist sites in Ireland, with around 1.5 million visits per annum.

The high cliffs at Greenglade, Nadgee Park Reserve, Far South Coast NSW Australia. This beach and picnic area accessible by a rough dirt track after turning off at Wonboyn. Ordinary car perhaps okay but many potholes and better in AWD, especially after rain. Good for the stomach muscles!

Old derelict tin mines with their cliff rocks and rubble were influential in the making of this image - plus a little bit of visual licence :-)

 

There is a few rock formations around NZ that are worthy. While this one is not spectacular, IT was unusual because of the location to me. I am assuming it is limestone.

Mpumalanga, South Africa

Fist time there, breathtaking.

The cliffs around Gásadalur, this time without the all famous waterfall.

So named by Captain John Smith on his map of 1612; the area is now called Calvert Cliff State Park, located on the eastern flank of the Calvert Peninsula, in Lusby, Maryland, USA.

Taken on my recent trip to the North East of England. I stopped of in Flamborough on my way to Scarborough to visit the cliffs and rocky coast line. Overcast conditions and middle of day so no portfolio shot but i really like the composition regardless.

A view from the edge of a cliff in an old quarry. Somme place will still look good, even with a grey sky, like this one.

Behind the red rock is a wholly different geology and the overhangs at the base made for the perfect place to build houses. So the Sinauga people did. At least that's the name Europeans gave them. They were most likely the ancestors of the Hopi nation.

This is a photo of patterns and reflections in the wet rock cliffs at Mavillette Beach.

Navajo Falls from Havasupai. This is the first waterfall that you see upon heading from the town of Supai and it is amazing. I usually don't post photos of myself, but couldn't help myself on this one. This is my jump off Navajo Falls. I setup the tripod, but my friend Jayson took the photo.
