Shetland, the northernmost point of Scotland, is a breathtaking island chain known for its rugged coastlines, white sandy beaches, and rich Viking history. With only 16 inhabited islands, this remote paradise offers a true escape, whether you’re exploring its ancient Iron Age brochs, watching Shetland ponies roam freely, or searching for orcas along the coast.

Things to Do in Shetland

Wildlife lovers will find seals, puffins, and porpoises around the shores, while the Northern Lights of Scotland dance across the sky in winter. Take a walk along the dramatic cliffs of Sumburgh Head, discover Clickimin Broch, or immerse yourself in Viking history at the annual Up Helly Aa festival. For adventurers, Shetland’s waters are perfect for kayaking, diving, and boat trips to remote isles.
