Shetland

Shetland

Shetland is a great place to visit especially with its blend of both Scotland and Norway.

Scenery here is very varied as you have sand dunes, pebble beaches, cliffs, and hills.  The roads are well maintained which makes getting around Shetland’s easy and accessible.

Shetland is a great place for walkers and cyclists.  Also, if you are a bird-watcher / lover, this is the place to come. With over 1 million birds - 600,000 fulmars and over 200,000 puffins.

In Shetland, the sunsets are out of this world.  You will also get to see wonders such as the Northern Lights and the Simmer Dim - during the midsummer months, there is 19 hours of daylight.

You are also never far from the coast and as you can imagine, life on the islands are dominated by the sea. Shetland also has three National Nature Reserves, four RSPB reserves and 78 Sites of Special Scientific Interest.

Activities on Shetland include mountain biking, fishing, scuba diving, golfing, great walking and much more.
