Port Nis

About

Port Nis is at the northerly end of the A857 road. Here you will find a small interesting harbour with the entrance through a rocky cliff face and rocky islet. One end of the habour leads onto a sandy north east facing beach.
In Autumn men from Ness make their traditional journey to Sula Sgeir to capture the young Gannets.
The habour viewed from near the road end is the best vantage point for taking photographs as from here you will get the harbour and sandy beach in the background.

Photographers Tip

Most favourable lighting is usually just after sunrise late spring through to late summer, or late evening in summer.
