Westray has been described as 'The Queen of the Isles', it is the second largest of the North Isles with a population of around 600. Taking an hour and a half on the ferry from Kirkwall, the car and passenger ferry docks at Rapness at the far south of the island, while the main settlement, Pierowall, is in the north. You can learn all about the island at the Westray Heritage Centre in Pierowall or you may choose to explore the island and visit the ruins of Noltland Castle and the many archaeological sites. Over 100,000 seabirds including gannets, razorbills and guillemots nest on the high cliffs at Noup Head, below the lighthouse.
