The Shetland Islands have been included in a list of the world's top 10 tourist sites by travel guide Lonely Planet.
The archipelago is described as possibly "the last untamed corner of the UK" in the Best In Travel 2011.
Islanders on Shetland are described by the guide as "a fiercely independent and self-reliant bunch" living in an area where it is easy to spot whales, otters, seals and puffins.
Lerwick, the main town, is a "must-include port of call for cruise ships" and visitors are urged to try local delicacies including seawater oatcakes, Shetland black potatoes and rhubarb with mackerel or herring.
