Duncansby Stacks near John O'Groats
.
Get ready to be enthralled by an edge-of-the-world sensation at Duncansby Head. This dramatic headland sits at the far north-eastern corner of the Scottish mainland. Come to Duncansby Head to earn the bragging rights of having stood at the edge of Great Britain.
.
The Stacks of Duncansby are some of the most impressive in the British Isles. The Great Stack is over 60 m high and rises above the summit of the adjacent cliff. The ledges of the stacks and surrounding eroded cliffs provide a natural nesting ground for various seabirds including guillemots, puffins and razorbills.

It's not often you see a scene like this.
Lifeboats from Wick, Thurso, Stromness and Longhope lined up in front of a memorial to a lifeboat crew lost 50 years ago. A striking photo by Mary Harris, volunteer press officer at Longhope.
Swipe for a video of the view from the Wick lifeboat as they formed part of the convoy steaming round Cantick Head lighthouse on their way to the memorial. It was captured by crew member Stuart Campbell.
Powerful images from an emotional day of events held to remember the eight Longhope crew lost in March 1969. The commemorations were organised by many directly affected by the tragedy and were led by Kevin Kirkpatrick, current RNLI Longhope Coxswain, who lost his father, uncle and grandfather in the disaster.
