The Holm of Skaw is a small islet off the northeast coast of the island of Unst. It is just northeast of the settlement of Skaw. The island is in height. There is a lighthouse on the island. Tidal currents are slack between Holm of Skaw and Herma Ness at high water, and the passage may be made by small boats. The Skaw Röst, a dangerous tidal race, forms off the shore of the Holm of Skaw and Lamba Ness. ==Gallery== File:Skaw from the Ward of Norwick - geograph.org.uk - 951986.jpg|Skaw from the Ward of Norwick The most northerly house in Britain in the foreground and the Holm of Skaw beyond.

At low tide it seems that it should be possible to walk out to the holm, but a deep channel runs between the rocks. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Holm of Skaw」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
