Plockton is a tiny, popular, attractive village in the Wester Ross area of the Highlands of Scotland. It is highly picturesque with lovely views. Perched on the shores of Loch Carron, Plockton is also known for its mild climate that allows colourful plants to flourish; you will even spot palm trees by the harbour. It developed as a fishing village from the 18th century but its current economy is heavily dependent on tourism. It’s a good place to just relax. There are walks nearby, boat trips are available and events such as art exhibitions are often held. Or it’s a good base to return to having had a day exploring the area. Given its small size, there are plenty of places to stay. There is even a railway station.
