Description
Duncansby Head is Britain's most northeastern point, offering breathtaking views of the North Sea.
This spot impresses with dramatic rock formations known as the Stacks of Duncansby, which are a sanctuary for seabirds and seals.
The distinctive 1924 white lighthouse, designed by David Alan Stevenson, is a picturesque feature of the landscape.
Walking along the cliffs, you can admire the rugged beauty of the Scottish coastline and, in good weather, spot the Orkney Islands on the horizon.

Sam Buckley3 weeks agoGreat place to visit if you are not scared of heights. There is very tall cliffs which are behind the fences but you are able to see the puffins that live in these cliffs. Had a great time, can be quite windy but not extremely cold when I went. Not lots of parking but it was fairly empty when we arrived.
Sally Taylor3 months agoGreat place to stretch your legs. Parking limited but people don't tend to spend much time there so you don't have to wait too long. Shame there was no cafe or coffee cart, they'd make a fortune.
