Welcome to the former Royal Navy base at Lyness, Hoy. The Base lies at the heart of Scapa Flow, which provides an enormous sheltered anchorage, in a commanding position from which to control the North Sea and the North Atlantic. Scapa Flow was the base for the Navy’s Grand Fleet in WW1, and again for the (renames) Home Fleet in WW11.
