Whaligoe Harbour is one of the most spectacular and unique harbours in Scotland. It is surrounded on three sides by 250 foot cliffs, and reached by the Whaligoe Steps which zig-zag down the cliffside. The natural harbour at the foot of the steps has been a landing spot for herring, salmon, whitefish and shellfish for a long time. The harbour steps were built by Captain David Brodie which enabled the harbour to support 14 herring boats. If you are going to descend the steps be sure to leave your bike safely at the top!
