Old Photograph Fogla Skerry Shetland Scotland
Old photograph of Fogla Skerry, Shetland Islands, Scotland. Fogla Skerry, is a small island situated off the west coast of Papa Stour. It is riddled with some of the most spectacular sea caves in Shetland. Papa Stour is the eighth largest island in Shetland. Erosion of the soft volcanic rocks by the sea has created an extraordinary variety of caves, stacks, arches, blowholes, and cliffs. The island and its surrounding seas harbour diverse populations of wildlife. Numerous shipwrecks have occurred around the coast, and the celebrated poem Da Sang o da Papa Men by Vagaland recalls the drama of the days when Papa Stour was a centre for deep sea fishing.
