Historical Scrabster
Scrabster Harbour has provided a safe deep water anchorage to seafarers since the days of Viking longboats. Because of its advantageous location, Scrabster quickly became the gateway to the northern lands of Orkney, Shetland, Scandinavia and the Faroes. These are links which have strengthened over the centuries. Construction of the current harbour began in 1841 when the Scrabster Harbour Trust was founded. By 1856 a ferry from Scrabster to Stromness had begun to operate and six years later a lighthouse was built at Holborn Head. Increasing trade and cargo, bound for customers across the globe, confirmed Scrabster as a major player in the economy of the north.
Modern Scrabster
Scrabster's close proximity to the northern fishing grounds, along with its well established, dedicated facilities have been contributory factors in establishing the harbour as the fastest growing fishing port in Britain. The same advantages of geographical position and infrastructure apply equally to oil industry pioneers of the Atlantic frontier. Scrabster's location in the far north of Scotland puts it in the front line of oilfield development, offering a more cost effective base over distant east coast ports. On-going development at Scrabster Harbour has seen the construction of a new Ro-Ro and Lay-by Pier, this, in turn, has allowed the creation of a deep water basin. A £50M programme for future development of the port is underway.
The Vision
The Scrabster Board of Management knows the importance of meeting customer demands, therefore the vision for the future is one of continuous development in order to facilitate ever changing business needs.
