Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Symbister?
The best area to stay in Symbister is the village centre itself, particularly around the harbour.

This area is the heart of Symbister, offering convenient access to local amenities and the picturesque waterfront. You'll find the main shop, the local pub, and the ferry terminal all within a short walk. The harbour is a working port, so there's always some activity to observe, and the surrounding scenery with the hills and sea is quite striking.

For couples looking for a peaceful getaway, staying in the village centre provides a chance to experience the local pace of life. You can enjoy strolls along the harbour, dine at the local eatery, and easily access walks around the headland for stunning coastal views.

For those interested in exploring the wider island of Whalsay, the village centre's proximity to the ferry terminal makes it an ideal base.
When is the best time to go to Symbister?
The best time to visit Symbister is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is at its mildest and daylight hours are longest.

During this period, you can expect average temperatures around 12-15°C, which is comfortable for exploring the island. The extended daylight means you have more time for outdoor activities, such as coastal walks around the harbour or discovering the smaller, more remote parts of the island. It's also the best time for wildlife spotting, including seabirds and marine life.

Travellers who prefer a quieter experience and don't mind cooler temperatures might consider late spring (May) or early autumn (September). While the weather can be a bit more unpredictable, these months often offer pleasant days, fewer crowds, and the chance to see the landscape transform with spring blooms or autumn colours.
Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?
You can cancel your hotel reservation on Expedia, though it depends on the cancellation policy of your booking. Most bookings are refundable if canceled within 24-48 hours of the scheduled arrival.
