I love the geology of Orkney. Here at Scapa beach you can see the layers of sedimentary sandstone and cross bedding amongst the layers. Between 420-350 MYA Orkney was under a massive freshwater lake named Orcadie. Interestingly enough it was a Roman scholar and map maker who came up to Orkney in about 126 BC to map out the islands and study the geology.
