With a population of just 7,000 Lerwick itself is relatively small but if you want to explore more of Mainland or the other islands, a car is essential.

What To See In Lerwick
In addition to the impressive Fort Charlotte which dates back to the 1700s, Lerwick is also known for its annual Up Helly-Aa Viking Fire Festival. The town gets extremely busy during festival time and cheap Lerwick flights may be hard to come by. Visitors who miss out on the festival itself can still get a flavour of the spectacle thanks to an exhibition featuring all the costumes and props including a replica Viking longboat.
