Lerwick

Lerwick, the crown jewel of the Shetland archipelago, Scotland, holds the distinction of being the most northerly town in Britain.  Situated on the east coast of Shetland Mainland, Lerwick enjoys a unique maritime climate with mild variations throughout the year.  Extended twilight paints the summer skies, while winter brings days with less than six hours of sunlight.

Lerwick offers a captivating blend of cultural and historical experiences.  Explore the Shetland Museum and Archives, an interactive haven that brings the island's way of life, culture, and history to life through well-crafted displays, informative voice-guided tours, and a scenic café.  Step back in time and immerse yourself in the traditional way of life at the Croft House Museum, a 19th-century thatched crofthouse in Dunrossness.  For craft beer enthusiasts, The Lerwick Brewery offers captivating tours, tastings, and insights into the brewing process, allowing visitors to witness the magic behind their favorite beverage.

Lerwick caters to your shopping desires.  Love From Shetland, a shop specializing in paraben-free skincare products, offers unique gifts and souvenirs.  Indulge your sweet tooth with delectable fudge flavors and other delightful treats at The Shetland Fudge Company Ltd.  As evening descends, unwind at The Lounge Bar, a welcoming haven for a relaxing evening.  If you're looking for a livelier atmosphere, head to Legion Scotland Lerwick Branch for a night out.
