Dore Holm is a small island located just off the coast of Mainland Shetland, Scotland. It forms a lovely sea arch which locals say is a horse drinking water from the sea.

One of the best places to photograph Dore Holm is from the viewpoint on the B9078, just before Stenness Beach.  

 

How to get there:

To get to the viewpoint on the B9078, simply follow the B9078 north from Lerwick. The viewpoint is located approximately 1 miles before Stenness Beach.

 

Best time:

Early morning or late evening is best, during the day you would have the sea arch backlit.

 

Parking:

Road side parking

 

Where to shoot:

Take a tripod and a long lens, the sea arch is quite a bit in the distance.  There is a little pond which you can take as the foreground.
