Orkney Islands, a windswept archipelago off Scotland's northern coast, is famous for its well-preserved Neolithic sites like Skara Brae, a 5,000-year-old village, and the Ring of Brodgar stone circle. The climate is cool, with summer temperatures around 55°F (13°C) perfect for hiking the coastal cliffs to spot puffins, while winters average 40°F (4°C) and invite you to explore the Italian Chapel, built by WWII prisoners. Between May and August, you can kayak in the sheltered waters of Scapa Flow, but spring and autumn offer fewer crowds for visiting the Standing Stones of Stenness and the 16th-century Bishop's and Earl's Palaces in Kirkwall.
