What people say
Emma Wright
"Situated on the farthest reach of the northern coast of Scotland is the incredible sight of the Duncansby lighthouse. Built at the beginning of the 20th century to guide boats through this perilous stretch of water, known by the title of “Hell’s Mouth”. The danger in this part of the coastal waters comes from the characteristics produced by the way the Atlantic and North Seas meet, producing eddies and flows that reach up to 10 knots."

"Park at Duncansby lighthouse car park, and follow the signs for Duncansby stacks - a 20 minute walk for some excellent views off the coast."
