After the cave, we stopped at a Dolman (VERY old grave site dating back to 3000 BC). The bones of 33 adults and children were found at the site along with a stone axe, beads, flint weapons, and pottery fragments (These are now at a local museum).
We then drove on to the highlight of the tour: the cliffs of Mohar. These are 700 ft cliffs that drop into the Atlantic ocean. We arrived and it was so foggy we could barely see the path in front of us, let alone the cliffs, but the fog lifted a bit and we got to see the crashing surf, soaring puffins, and amazing cliffs. It would have been cool to have a clear view, but the fog made it kind of enchanted. The wind was blowing so hard it made me think I was back in Kansas for a moment (the fog dispelled this impression immediately however).
