A Day on Sanday

Our 8 seater aircraft to the Island of Sanday.We were a total of 13 minutes in the air including a short stopover on the island of Stronsay. Sanday is one of the larger islands with a population of about 500. The attraction there is a good school that takes its pupils up to the age of 16. 


The beautiful white sandy beach. We were lucky to see loads of wildlife including many birds and about 20 seals that followed us along the shore out of curiosity for a short time.

Sanday Airport Terminal. Check in time was 10 minutes prior to the flight and the funny bit about it was that they weighed the rucksacks but not the passengers as if a few kilos in a rucksack would make a load of difference. We were never asked for identity and we were not screened for security. Flying as it used to be.
