Wick Harbour

Whatever water-based leisure pursuit you are into, Wick is the place to do it!

Look at what we have to offer, with majestic cliffs and pure clean deep water right on our doorstep:-

SEA ANGLING
A huge variety of species are available all year round, inshore, offshore, and over the numerous wrecks scattered around the coast.

Sea Angling


BIRDWATCHING

Some of the finest cliff colonies of seabirds are within a few miles of us, truly spectacular sights especially in May, June, and July.

MARINE LIFE
With regular sightings of minke, pilot, and killer whales, and porbeagle and basking sharks, this is nature at its best.

 

Puffin

Seals Sunbathing

COASTAL SCENERY
Sea cliffs, stacks and caves, mostly unseen from land based trips, offer some awe-inspiring sights.

Majestic Scenery

Sightseeing Trips

DIVING
Crystal clear water offers the opportunity to explore wrecks, caves and reefs.

Caithness Diving

SAILING
We are strategically placed for coastal or international passages, and provide safe berthing, toilets and showers, and all the usual town and harbour facilities and services. Marina Phase 1 is now in place, and we are working hard on our Marina Phase 2 plans, which hopefully we could see  in place for summer 2008.
