Dunnet Beach in Kirkwall

Nice beach that looked good even in cold December. I would like to see it again in warmer weather when it probably looks even better.

Lovely wide open sandy beach, car park right by it. Gentle slope into the sea, didnt get deep too quickly - clean, clear water and the sea wasnt as cold as you might expect!

Nice beach!

Stunning arc of white sandy beach backed by rolling sand dunes 😍 Stretching for over 2 miles, the bay is fairly sheltered from the view what creates the atmosphere of inclusive privacy.Facilities on site - carpark, motorhome park, toilets with showers - all nice and tidy! 🤗Perfect place for the whole family or a romantic walk 🥰

Very nice beach and spotlessly clean, toilets close by and rubbish bins, good phone signal

We enjoyed our stop here. Lovely beach and big waves!

Lovely beach, ideal for walks and dogs.

Sehr schöner Strand mit erfrischenden Wasser

Wide, amazing sunset view, car parking

Wide and clean with easy to park spaces and beautiful views

I love it here. Very scenic with Dunnet head rising in to the distance at the north end. Good spot for a (reasonablydark sky. Nice sandy beach. There is a car park at either end of the bay.

This glorious beach stretches for about a mile around the sides of a sheltered bay. Car parking is available at various spots but the main car park is towards the Northern end where toilets are also available (at the entrance to the C&MC club site). The dunes are big enough to present a challenge to clamber up. We visited several times in June and there was only ever a handful of people present so the dog could run around excitedly without upsetting anyone. A visit to the community owned forest on the other side of the road is also highly recommended.

Lovely beach,great for dog walks

Beautiful and picturesque sandy beach.

Gorgeous beach, great facilities such as parking and toilets. Has a small museum to learn about wildlife. Lovely big ocean, plenty sand for walking, horse riding, etc. Great sand dunes for climbing on. In summer there are large patches of purple flowers. Very nice place to go a walk for a few hours.

Clean and usually empty beach with some nice waves, perfect for surfing amateurs

Beautiful sandy beach, glorious weather, perfect place for a paddle, swim or surf (if youre brave enoughor just to walk the dog on the golden sand!

Lovely sandy beach perfect for walking the dogs. Sea not too rough and quite shallow. Some pebbles but not all over. Long and peaceful. Only one other walker on it. A must if you are in the area. Free parking too. Recommended

Gorgeous beach, expansive at low tide with stunning sunsets.

Lovely beach for dog walks..

Lovely long white sandy beach. Well worth a visit. Decent sized carpark just after or before Castletown (pending which direction you are travelling inalso another one in the middle that you can cut across the dunes to the beach. There are a lot of jelly fish just now so just keep an eye if you have a dog

Love it. Love it. Love it.

Beautiful beach with expansive sand at low tide. Facilities close at hand just in case. Beautiful views of the backside of Dunnet Head and out to the ocean. Perfect place to run your dogs and play.

Excellent beach- not much sand left at high water. Long walks through the dunes or paddle in the waves. Great for dogs.

Beautiful beach, even managed to do some swimming!

Lovely beach with great sand dunes

A hidden gem.

Beautiful scenery

Huippuluokan hiekkaranta. Vähän tuli mieleen kuin olisi Californiassa

Beautiful beach, which is large enough to lose the few that visit. Not been in the height of summer, but it is pretty good when its warm. Can be windswept at times, but that doesnt matter to some.

A world class beach in a world class location.

Plenty of beach for everyone to share. Beautiful sand

Très grande et belle plage, dommage que le beau temps nai pas été au rendez-vous.

Fabulous wide hard sand beach. Dont know about the tide line. The wind never stopped and the weather blew in quickly but the environment and view are really dramatic.
