About This Seaport
Nineteen curing stations and three piers once made Whitehall, on the Orkney island of Stronsay, the most important fishing port in the archipelago during the herring boom of the 1920s and 1930s. Today it runs a roll-on, roll-off ferry link to Kirkwall operated by Orkney Ferries, with a fishing harbour now home mainly to creel boats working lobster and crab. Commercial container, customs or breakbulk handling is not confirmed; the village sits between an eastern ferry pier and a western fishermen's pier. For commercial sea freight in Orkney, Kirkwall and nearby Hatston are the relevant gateways.
