About Quoys

Quoys sits on Unst, Shetland's northernmost island, reached via two ferries from mainland Shetland. The journey from Lerwick takes three hours including crossings, following the A970 then island roads. With roughly two EV chargers available, it's primarily visited by tourists exploring Britain's edge rather than daily travellers. The settlement's claim to fame is being one of the UK's most northerly communities, with the Faroe Islands as the next landmass north.
