Yesnaby is one of Orkney's most spectacular stretches of coastline, and should definitely be on your list of 'must see' locations when visiting the islands.
You will find it on the west coast of mainland Orkney. This wild location offers beautiful sea views. Expect huge waves against the cliffs during a westerly storm, but in calmer weather it's a nature lover's paradise, with wild flowers - including Primula scotica - and plenty of seabirds to spot.
