Where do visitors arriving by ferry disembark in Lerwick?

Visitors arriving on the Shetland Islands by ferry from Aberdeen on the Scottish mainland disembark in Lerwick, the archipelago’s main (and only) town. It’s an enjoyable place to stay for a while, exploring the harbor, visiting the quaint shops selling local crafts, including the knitwear for which the islands are known, and dipping into cozy cafés and the excellent heritage museum. There’s a handy visitor center in the middle of town and this is also where you can rent a car or take one of the reliable (if infrequent) buses to other parts of the island or even as far as the northernmost island of Unst.
