Scrabster, Caithness

Scrabster is a small settlement, 2.5km from Thurso in Caithness, with a ferry link to Stromness in Orkney from Scrabster Harbour.  Scrabster is an important fishing port, and is one of the leading whitefish ports in Britain.

Scrabster Harbour is undergoing a £20 million redevelopment at present, the work will include upgrading the facilities for existing users & preparing it for the emerging marine energy sector in the Pentland Firth.

This is seen as an important step to prepare Caithness to diversify and reduce it's dependence on the nuclear industry as Dounreay is decommissioned.
