Coastal and Maritime Heritage

Orkney’s maritime landscape is defined by its strategic naval history and rugged coastline. This collection highlights iconic Stevenson-engineered lighthouses, such as the 19th-century towers at Cantick Head and Noup Head. Scapa Flow serves as a focal point, containing the protected war grave of HMS Royal Oak and the sunken remains of the German High Seas Fleet, including the SMS Markgraf and SMS König. Coastal sites like St Peter’s Pool and Scapa Beach provide evidence of World War II defenses set against natural sandy bays.
