About

Scalloway Pool in Shetland sits on New Rd in Scalloway, Shetland ZE1 0TN. The pool is located in Scalloway, a village on the west side of the Shetland mainland, with Lerwick, Brae, Yell, Unst, Whalsay and Bressay among the islands and settlements that frame travel in the archipelago.

As a sports centre, Scalloway Pool serves the local area from its New Rd position, and its website at http://www.srt.org.uk/scalloway anchors what it offers. Visitors have given it a 4.8 out of 5 average across 38 reviews, a record reflecting steady approval. First-time visitors should expect a community facility rather than a large leisure complex.

Scalloway sits a short distance from Lerwick, Shetland's main town and arrival point for ferries from the mainland. The pool's position on New Rd places it within the village rather than out in the surrounding countryside.

Seafood is central to food in these islands, with crab, lobster, scallops, mackerel and oysters landed by small boats. Standing stones, brochs and early Christian chapels survive on many British islands, and grey seals breed around the coasts while basking sharks appear in summer surface waters.
