Beautiful, magical place. It’s definitely worth going there for sunset because the views are wonderful. One of the best places for long walks. I highly recommend this place.

Stunning setting and absolutely gorgeous. Very tragic what the cliffs are known for, but well worth a visit.

Really nice and epic place to visit. I loved it so much! Every few steps that you walk you will have different a different view! It was windy but the weather was kind of okay, takes some time to hike, but it’s definitely worth it if you love the nature.

Came here a while ago now, long than stated on here, however not much has changed and the view is so amazing that more people should come here. The cliffs are breathtaking and you can see the sea for miles and miles. The way the sun glimmers off the water makes photos look exceptional. It really is a place to sit and ponder, though I am also aware that sadly it has a slightly depressing reputation for those who have struggled with their mental health. Great view for a walk with a cute lighthouse along the way. Would recommend.
