    The Whaligoe steps are 365 stone steps cut into the cliff which allowed the locals to ferry the herring catch up the cliffs and across to Wick to be sold. Nowadays it's a bit of a scary climb down and one to avoid in cleats but the views are great and the atmosphere and history is worth a stop for. 330 steps remain.
