Port of Lerwick

Shetland's capital and only town is Lerwick, which lies roughly at the centre of Shetland's main island, Mainland. The old fishing port here has been vastly expanded, but retains much of its charm. Lerwick is a large and busy working port, and the terminus for the new NorthLink ferries to Kirkwall and Aberdeen. There are ferries to other destinations including Scandinavia, Faroe and Iceland.
