Sligga Skerry, Yell Sound at dusk An uncharacteristically calm winter's day. Bigga is the island to the left and Uynarey is to the right.

View over Yell Sound at dusk Looking across the island of Bigga towards Mainland. The strange cloud is actually something to do with Sullom Voe - a thin plume of white smoke coming from the flare stack becomes invisible for a while before condensing as a dark cloud higher up.
Coastline at Ulsta In the foreground are the reinforcements for the coast beside the Yell Sound ferry terminal at Ulsta. In the background, is a snow-covered Ronas Hill, the highest point in Shetland at 450m.
Coastline west of Ulsta The island of Bigga in Yell Sound is on the horizon.

Always a friendly welcome and service at Busta. Very thoughtful to make sure I had a quiet room as the hotel was busy with Christmas parties and I was travelling for work.

8.4/10 Very Good! (26 reviews)
We were on a 3-week tour of Highlands & Islands. Owners Andrea and Paul were stupendous hosts! So kind and helpful! Food, especially dinner, was first class! We learned much about the history and where to visit. Irving, the waiter, was charming. We strongly recommend.
