Stenness to St Ninian's Shetland

Had a trip up to Stenness up at Eshaness on a calm but cold day. The rocky beach at Stenness is always good to look for interesting stones, sea glass and pottery.


Even the odd Viking makes the pilgrimage to this lonely but interesting area. Most people will go on stormy days and this is worth the trip but the area holds a lot to see at any time of year


The old tall fishing station is still fairly intact on the beach, minus the roof


A few visits to St Ninian's to see sunsets as well but nothing outstanding yet. On these short days its good to get both sunrises and sunsets on 6 hours apart




The number of Covid cases continues to rise in Shetland and its now spreading throughout the mainland. As well as Brae, Busta., Lerwick now Sandwick has a few cases and also a couple of hundred people are self isolating.







Happy 2021,  Stay safe and i will be travelling around more very soon.
