Herring Harbour!

This is the sea entrance and a section of the Harbour at Lybster which is a village on the east coast of Caithness in northern Scotland. It was a big herring fishing port in the 19th century.

Lybster lies at the end of the tenth stage of the John o' Groats Trail, a long-distance walking trail from Inverness to John o' Groats.

HWW to one and all!
