NORTHLINK FERRIES
While it is possible to fly to Kirkwall, the majority of UK divers make the pilgrimage with full kit, so the ferry is the most common option. You can sail from Aberdeen, but the most popular route with divers is the the 90-minute crossing from Scrabster (in the far north of Scotland) to Stromness on Orkney, home port to the Scapa diving fleet. Taking the ferry can also enable you to bring a vehicle, which will come in handy for exploring on land during the long, bright afternoons. For all the options go to www.northlinkferries.co.uk and be sure to read the section on the rules regarding safe transportation of cylinders https://tinyurl.com/yyl2vb7o
