The Orkney Islands have such a lot to offer the visitor in both history and its nature. Mainland Orkney can be described as a bird watcher's paradise. There are several RSPB Reserves on the island. Fishermen also think Orkney is "Paradise" as all fishing is FREE!
We now have a newly opened Sealife Museum in St. Margaret's Hope which is well worth a visit.

Archaeologists are in their element in Orkney, exploring Skara Brae, the many brochs, the Ring of Brodgar and the Standing Stones of Stenness.
Visitors must try to visit St Magnus Cathedral, which dominates Kirkwall's skyline. Equally enchanting is the Italian Chapel built by Italian POW's during the war.
The famous Churchill Barriers are also worth seeing. They were built to enclose and protect the fleet anchored in Scapa Flow during the war.
