Weather on these northern isles shifts quickly, so a waterproof layer earns its place in any bag. Seafood is central to island food, with crab, lobster, scallops, mackerel and oysters landed by small boats, and island life centres on harbours, lifeboat stations and the RNLI, with regattas and fetes in summer. Finstown and Hoy sit within the wider island network that Kirkwall serves.
