Skaw Beach, located on the island of Unst in Shetland, boasts the title of Britain's most northerly sandy beach. Accessible via a winding road with stunning views, this hidden gem offers fine white sand, wildflower meadows, and shelter from the winds. For those seeking seclusion, Inner Skaw nearby provides an even more remote sandy spot. Military remnants like the Cold War radar dome add a touch of history to this picturesque setting. With pink crystals of potassium feldspar in the granite rocks, Skaw Beach is not just a beautiful beach but also a geological wonder worth exploring.
