Description
English: Landscape of Achill
Panoramic from Meeunaun cliffs, overlooking the very large Trawmore Strand and, after a little hill, the village of Keel with its beach and inlet. In the left, the suggestive and far Keem bay, closed by Moytoge Head. The mountain beside the last bay is Croaghaun, that in the northern side falls into the Ocean: for this reason is considered European highest sea cliff. Moytoge isn't last point of the island, being Achill Head (not so much clear in the photo).

Italiano: Panoramica di Achill
Vista dalle scogliere di Meenaun con in primo piano la vastissima spiaggia di Trawmore; dietro l'immensa spiaggia, dopo una piccola altura al centro dell'isola, è presente l'abitato di Keel con relativa spiaggia e insenatura. In lontananza, a sinistra, è ben visibile la suggestiva e selvaggia baia di Keem, con Moytoge Head a chiuderla con l'insolito promontorio tondeggiante che cade direttamente in mare. Il monte che svetta dietro Keem è Croaghaun, che nel lato posteriore precipita nell'oceano formando le scogliere di fatto più alte d'Europa. Moytoge non è il punto finale dell'isola, essendo quest'ultimo l'inaccessibile Achill Head, poco visibile dietro la baia di Keem.
