Time your visit
Aim for early morning or late afternoon to avoid coach crowds and to catch better light on the basalt columns.
Wear sturdy footwear
The rock surfaces are uneven and can be slippery when wet — closed-toe hiking shoes with good grip are recommended.
Bring a windproof layer
Atlantic wind can be cold and persistent even on sunny days; a packable shell keeps you comfortable on exposed points.
Respect safety signs
Do not climb below the high-tide line or venture onto unstable cliff edges; follow National Trust guidance for routes.
