Stromness, Scotland cruise port guide

Modern Stromness hasn’t changed dramatically since the turn of the last century and stone houses still stand over cobbled streets, but Orkney’s main historic claim is the rich legacy of Neolithic sites and artefacts found here. It was proclaimed a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999 under the title “Heart of Neolithic Orkney.” The most famous of these monuments is probably the settlement of Skara Brae, once a small village of 50-100 people living together near the shores of Skaill Bay.

About Stromness, Scotland

Stromness is the second-largest town in the Orkney Islands, a picturesque ferry port with a main street of flagstone-paved lanes and stone-built houses. The Stromness Museum documents the town's seafaring heritage and connection with the Hudson's Bay Company. It is the closest port to the Neolithic sites of Skara Brae and the Ring of Brodgar.
