## Frequently asked questions

### What is the best area to stay in Orkney?

> Stromness is well-known for its winding flagstone streets, traditional stone houses, and bustling harbor. The town extends along the waterfront, with many accommodations offering views of Scapa Flow. It's a great base for exploring the western side of Orkney, including the Heart of Neolithic Orkney UNESCO World Heritage site.
> 
>   
> Couples often find Stromness appealing due to its intimate size and scenic beauty. The town offers a selection of local shops, art galleries, and restaurants, superb for relaxed evenings after a day of sightseeing. Its ferry connections to mainland Scotland and other Orkney islands make it a convenient hub for exploring the archipelago.
> 
>   
> Kirkwall, Orkney's capital, is another excellent option, especially for those seeking more amenities and a central location. Kirkwall features the impressive St. Magnus Cathedral at its heart, surrounded by a mix of historic buildings and modern conveniences. It's the largest town in Orkney, offering a wider range of dining, shopping, and cultural experiences.
> 
>   
> For solo travelers, Kirkwall provides easy access to public transport routes across the island and a broader selection of hotels and guesthouses.

### When is the best time to go to Orkney?

> During this period, the average temperatures range from 12°C to 17°C, making it pleasant for exploring the islands' outdoor attractions like the Standing Stones of Stenness and the Ring of Brodgar. The extended daylight, with up to 18 hours of light, allows for full days of sightseeing and enjoying the scenic coastal paths. This time is particularly good for families due to the comfortable weather for outdoor activities and the availability of wildlife tours to see puffins and seals.
> 
>   
> Should you prefer a quieter experience with fewer crowds, the shoulder seasons of May and September also offer good conditions. While slightly cooler, these months still provide ample daylight and a good chance for pleasant weather, appealing to couples looking for a more serene trip. Many archaeological sites and museums remain open, and accommodation can be slightly less expensive than in peak summer.
