It is one of the most accessible seabird colonies in Britain, with cliffs teeming with guillemots, fulmars and other seabirds. RSPB staff and volunteers will help show you the birds and learn about their lives. There will be games and activities. As well as the drama of the seabirds, Sumburgh Head has played an important part in protecting human life, most obviously through the Stevenson's Lighthouse. However, there is an important but little known World War 2 story, which will be shared with you by the Shetland Amenity Trust Assistant Archaeologist at 12pm and 3pm. Not to be missed! |

Easy terrain, though steep in places. Less able-bodied people may park within the lighthouse complex. |
