Fair Isle, Scotland

Fair Isle, Scotland

The stunning Fair Isle, famed for its seabirds and fabulous knitwear, lies almost exactly halfway between Shetland and Orkney and can be reached by boat or small plane. Ashore is a warm, welcoming community, consisting mainly of craftspeople, conservationists, boat-builders and crofters. Renowned as a place to see birds, there are lots of other things to discover - from archaeological remains to the famous Stevenson lighthouses. Fair Isle is a birdwatcher's paradise, being a vital stopping-off place for migrating birds, and more than 350 species have been recorded here.
