Stromness
Stromness is a place to enjoy an old port town closely tied to the sea. Stone houses line the harbour, with short lanes leading to piers and slipways. Its maritime history is visible in the streets themselves, where small shops, workshops and galleries occupy old buildings.
Beyond the town, walks continue along the shore of Hoy Sound. Views of Hoy’s hills and open water are a striking change from the narrow streets beside the harbour.
