Day 2 North Ronaldsay, Orkney Islands.Ĭruise this morning to the Orkney Islands arriving in the early afternoon at the northernmost isle of North Ronaldsay. Transfers will be provided from Aberdeen Railway Station and Aberdeen International Airport at a fixed time.

To combine the small communities of North Ronaldsay, Fetlar and Unst with uninhabited St Kilda into one itinerary is rare and when combined with the towns of Lerwick and Torshavn, such an itinerary allows us to understand the history, witness the wildlife and experience the culture of these remote and beautiful islands.Įmbark this afternoon. Few ships make the journey to these outer islands and we are grateful to therefore be able to explore these wonderful places aboard the all-suite MS Island Sky with just 100 or so fellow passengers. With our fleet of Zodiacs we are able to make calls into some of the remote and uninhabited islands that surround the Scottish coast and cruise close to shorelines and cliffs crowded with birdlife. We have been operating cruises around the tip of Scotland for many years and this really is an itinerary that conveys the multiple benefits of small ship cruising. During this unique voyage, we will journey along rugged coastlines and visit once inhabited islands venturing far north to the Orkney, Shetland and Faroe Islands combined with our time in the Hebrides. True, Noble Caledonia can bring you all over the world, visiting all manner of exotic and wonderful places yet it is also true that some of the finest scenery, fascinating history and most endearing people are found close to home and nowhere is this truer than the islands off Scotland’s indented coastline which form stepping stones into the Atlantic.

This expedition cruise is one of our most popular and will appeal to those who prefer their islands deserted, but with abundant bird and wildlife.
