Durness

Time you got around to sponsoring a child
Durness is a remote village in the northwestern Highlands of Scotland, lying on the Kyle of Durness. The main sources of employment in the village are crofting and tourism.

The main attractions in Durness are Smoo Cave, a sea cave with a small river running through it and a waterfall in wet weather, and the surrounding sea birds, seals and porpoises. A few miles east lies Loch Eriboll, known for its otters and minke whales and used to station naval troops during World War II.

The village is also used as a base by visitors to Cape Wrath.
