3About Yesnaby
Yesnaby perches on Orkney Mainland's Atlantic coast, about 15 kilometres west of Kirkwall via the A965 and B9056. This clifftop spot delivers some of Scotland's finest coastal drama, where red sandstone meets the churning sea. The area's strong maritime winds and Gulf Stream-moderated temperatures create Orkney's distinctive climate. Electric vehicle drivers will find approximately 11 fast chargers nearby. The standout feature is Yesnaby Castle, a magnificent red sandstone sea stack rising from the waves just offshore.
