What's a Selkie?
Immersed in the rich tapestry of Scottish folklore, stories surrounding selkies are handed down from generation to generation. The myths and fairytales shared in the Orkney’s and Shetland Isles are of wonderous shape-shifting seal creatures. Selkies are able to transform by shedding their seal skins and taking on human form. They help and guide lost souls and are able to bring about a state of contentment and joy to those they meet.
At Selkie, we embrace the magic and mystique of these mythical beings, channeling their energy into our extraordinary travel experiences.
Let us whisk you away on unforgettable journeys, where you'll uncover hidden wonders, forge connections with nature and become Selkie friends for life.
