Summer is in full swing along Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way, and the Cliffs of Moher Experience has unveiled a host of seasonal activities and visitor enhancements designed to help travellers make the most of one of the country's most iconic attractions. From live traditional music and scenic shuttle routes to new food offerings and unforgettable photo opportunities, there's plenty to discover this July.

Explore More of County Clare
Visitors looking to experience more than just the cliffs can take advantage of the Burren & Cliffs Explorer Shuttle Bus, which connects many of County Clare's best-loved attractions and hidden gems. The service links destinations including Doolin, Ballyvaughan, Corofin and Spanish Point, making it easy to explore the region without the hassle of driving.
Suggested half-day and full-day itineraries help visitors create a flexible day out while discovering the stunning landscapes, villages and attractions that make Clare one of Ireland's top tourism destinations.
Summer Sessions Return
One of the highlights of the season is the return of the Summer Sessions, taking place every Monday evening from 6:30pm to 7:30pm in the Cliffs View Café.
Guests can enjoy live traditional Irish music while taking in spectacular Atlantic views, alongside locally produced food and refreshments, creating a memorable way to spend a summer evening on Ireland's west coast.
A New Coffee Stop
There's also a new addition for visitors looking to refuel. Moher Cottage has opened its outdoor coffee kiosk at the entrance to the Cliffs of Moher Experience, serving freshly brewed coffee, takeaway treats and the company's well-known handmade fudge.
Whether you're beginning your visit or finishing your walk along the cliffs, it's an ideal stop for a taste of County Clare.
Capture the Moment
Visitors wanting a lasting reminder of their trip can make use of the Cliffs of Moher's Photo Experience.
On fine days, professional photographers are positioned outdoors to capture the dramatic Atlantic backdrop, while an indoor green screen studio ensures visitors can still take home memorable photographs even if the weather doesn't cooperate.
Easier Summer Travel
To help ease congestion during the busy tourism season, the recommended one-way traffic system has been reintroduced for campervans and coaches travelling through North Clare.
The initiative is designed to improve traffic flow along the R477 coastal road while encouraging visitors to plan ahead and follow local signage when travelling to the Cliffs of Moher and surrounding attractions.
Discover Clare's Western Loop
Those planning a longer adventure can also take advantage of the Western Loop Ticket, which combines admission to three popular attractions:
Cliffs of Moher Experience
Loop Head Lighthouse
Vandeleur Walled Garden & Visitor Centre
The flexible ticket offers excellent value for anyone looking to explore more of County Clare's spectacular coastline, heritage and scenery.
More to Explore
The newsletter also highlights seasonal experiences at nearby attractions, including Twilight at Bunratty Castle & Folk Park, offering evening access to the folk park during summer, and Loop Head Lighthouse, which is open daily from 10am to 5pm throughout the season.
Whether you're planning a day trip, a weekend escape or simply passing through the Wild Atlantic Way, the Cliffs of Moher Experience continues to add new reasons to visit this summer, combining breathtaking scenery with music, local food and unique experiences for visitors of all ages.
