Unfortunately, we found Wick to be one of the most disappointing stops on the NC500. We arrived on a Sunday evening and everything was closed – restaurants and all! However, Wick is a great place to park overnight if you are on the NC500, as there is plenty of local shops to replenish your food supplies!
This parking spot is right on the harbour’s edge therefore you are treated to uninterrupted spectacular views. The location of this place to park is also fantastic as you are just a short 10-minute walk to the centre of town.
Unfortunately, it can get pretty loud as there is a considerable amount of road traffic that passes by in the morning.
Although we wouldn’t necessarily recommend visiting Wick, we probably would recommend this place to park overnight!

Hi
Is it possible to edit your post at all to advise travellers that Wick Harbour is private property and its not permissible to camp there as its a working and operational harbour? Thanks
