One of the best places in all of Orkney for spotting Puffins is near the southern tip of the island. The squat sea stack and former hermitage is home to several hundred nesting birds from late spring through summer. A 5.6-km loop walk from Rapness Mill passes by the sea stack en route to the Bay of Tafts. You can also explore different options for camping near Westray on Hipcamp.
