Tucked along the windswept coast of northern Scotland, Scrabster is a rugged gem where land meets sea in a spectacular fashion. This working harbor town offers striking views across the Pentland Firth and quick access to the mystical Orkney Islands. Stroll the weathered docks lined with fishing boats and then hike the nearby cliffs for panoramic vistas and seabird sightings. The air here carries salt and history, steeped in Norse heritage and Highland lore.
