Whalsay Island is the sixth largest Shetland Island. For Shetland it's densely populated with fishing as the main industry and a thriving fleet sailing from Symbister harbour. Crofting is the second largest way of life.
Ferries sail here from Laxo & Vidlin on the Shetland Mainland. The ferries are regular with the crossing taking about 30mins depending on the sea.
