Cliffs of Moher Weather
Occasionally, we may have to close the visitor centre due to extreme weather conditions which make it dangerous for visitors and staff to remain onsite. At other times the weather requires special attention to safety. Please note the signage on entry to the visitor car park and coach park.
THE WEATHER
Part of the beauty of the Cliffs is that they can be cloaked in fog one minute and basking in the sun’s rays the next. The weather is highly unpredictable. So visiting us, it’s best to come prepared for all types of weather – with a good rain jacket and a pair of walking boots.
You can get accurate weather conditions by calling us or checking the national weather forecaster on the day you plan to visit us. Go to www.met.ie.

From time to time there are high winds or other hazardous weather conditions at the Cliffs of Moher, which is why we follow the Met Eireann weather warning protocols. If you are visiting us in periods of high winds, please be aware of the following warning signs which are displayed on our website and social media platforms as well as at the entrance to the carpark and coach park.
