Kirk Ness, Whalsay
 
The air is pure, scented with seaweed. in mid summer it’s so light you can go bird-watching all night and so quiet you can hear a seal bark half a mile away. Green Shetland.

Outskerries & Whalsay

Have you ever felt the need to simply get away from it all with peace, tranquillity, and space your ultimate desire?  Whalsay, with its fishing heritage, playful seals, archaeological sites and historic Georgian mansion all on an island surrounded by clear blue seas, or Out Skerries, right on the eastern tip of the Shetland Isles, with dramatic coastlines, tumbling beaches covered with smooth pebbles and the perfume of wild flowers filling the air during the spring and summer months, provides all the space you could ever need.

This is truly a place to relax, a place to sit and watch as rare birds reach their first landfall on mysterious migratory paths.  Lose yourself as magnificent waves crash upon blowholes carved into the stunning cliffside.  Refresh your soul as you explore mysterious shipwrecks lying just off the coast.  On land or in sea, embrace the forces of nature that surround you.
