Houton ferry terminal is the gateway to Orkney’s southern isles, with its busy ferry terminal linking the Mainland to Hoy and Flotta.
Passing through Orphir, you’ll find a quiet village overlooking the sheltered waters of Scapa Flow, where traces of Viking history sit side by side with everyday island life.
Scapa Flow is more than just a stretch of water — it’s a vast natural harbour that has shaped Orkney’s story for over a thousand years, from Viking longships to the Royal Navy fleets of two World Wars.
