Burra, one of the smaller Shetland Islands, is connected to Mainland Shetland by a series of bridges and the island of Trondra.
Pause for photos at Meal Beach -- one of the prettiest beaches in Shetland. Stroll 300 yards along the boardwalk to reach the sand.
At The Shetland Pony Experience, meet the friendly owners and separate into smaller groups. You will have a rewarding opportunity to pet, brush and handle the ponies.
After a close encounter with some adorable little foals, you will be able to lead one of the ponies a few hundred yards down to the beautiful, secluded beach and take photos with these beautiful animals.
This is a positively authentic and fun Shetland experience.
