The Caithness settlement of Lybster sits on a broad harbour with views across the North Sea and down to the Moray Coast and is steeped in clan history. Hotels, shops, and a golf course are just a few of the attractions available in Lybster. The combination of old history and breath-taking surroundings, as well as a story of steady progress and the ability to change with the times, will entice you to Lybster. An exhibition on the area’s history and natural resources demonstrates how the community has persevered over time. The Grey Cairns of Campster, five miles inland on the Watten Road, provide tourists the opportunity to journey back in time by crawling inside the 5,000-year-old cairn or exploring the Achavanich Standing Stones, which stand sentry beside Stempster Hill.
