It would be silly to come this far north and to not visit John O'Groats.
But to be honest, it is not a particularly amazing place and it is mainly about ticking a box. Due to the number of tourists that arrive here, there is a substantial car park and it is unusual in this part of Scotland in that you are expected to pay for parking.
Surrounding the car park are various shops and eating establishments so you can stop for a while and get some food and go in search of some cheesy souvenirs or gifts to take back for friends and relatives.
There are also public toilets here and, once again unusually for here, you have to pay to use these.
With comfort taken care of, wander down to the John O'Groats signpost and wait patiently for your turn to take a photo to prove you were here.
This done, you can take a bit of a wander along the quayside or along the beach and admire the view out to the Orkney Isles. It is possible to take a passenger ferry from here to the Orkney Isles but you need a full day to explore the islands properly so do this as a planned excursion rather than on a whim.
Job done, back to the car.
Notes for visitors with limited mobility:
There is a large car park here and easy access to the famous signpost, restaurants, gift shops and toilets.
