The Trinkie Sea Water Pool

Highlight • Natural

When you look at it, you wonder how this came about. It seems as if all segments of Earth time have simply been flipped over and cut off.

View of the Castle of Old Wick

Highlight • Viewpoint

Storm and windswept the ancient ruins stand on the cliff. I was wondering how cold and drafty it must have been in the castle.

Lots to capture your attention at Wick harbour. Alongside the attractive boats, there is a lighthouse on both North and South piers, also a lifeboat station, fog cannon and other landmarks to take note of.

Wick Harbour

Highlight • Settlement

The port city of Wick is located on the north-east coast of Scotland about 410 km north of Edinburgh and about 1060 km north of London. Wick, with a population of 7155, is the county town of Caithness. The name Wick is apparently derived from the Norse word for bay.

Ebenezer Place (World's Shortest Street)

Highlight • Monument

Welcome to Ebenezer Place, Wick. Recognised by the Guinness Book of Records as being the world's shortest street at 2.06 m (6 ft 9 in).

It's pretty exclusive - the street only has one address: the entrance to No. 1 Bistro, part of Mackays Hotel.

The hotel has other frontages on Union Street and River Street, but save yourself the journey and use the one on Ebenezer Place.
