Skeld

Skeld is a landlocked haven with an excellent pier and new marina. There are 8 visitor berths as well as having a floating pontoon with space for another 20 or more.

When entering the narrows of Skeld Voe keep centre then point towards the church to avoid the shallow water of the centre line.

For a real taste of Skeld hospitality schedule your trip for the last weekend of July (approx) when the annual regatta is held. There is rowing, yachting, fishing and socialising!

A bus service leaves for Lerwick at 0745 hours and 1320 hours and returns from Lerwick at 1705 hours.

Further west are two of the most exquisite bays in Shetland: Westerwick and Culswick, each a narrow green valley ending in a pebble beach fringed by sea stacks, cliffs and caves.

There is a small marina in Gruting Voe also close by.
