Grade B
Latheronwheel provides a fantastic little harbour to enjoy half way along this magic little trip, it hides between small cliffs that provide plenty of opportunities to explore caves and arches. This all adds to make a great short day out with plenty of interest as well as never being too far away from an easy landing in a picturesque old harbour that was built in the herring fishing years.
