Port Stoth, Inlet in Outer Hebrides, Scotland.

Port Stoth features a white shell beach and natural rock formations along the northern coast of Isle of Lewis, near the Butt of Lewis lighthouse.

The inlet served as the main landing point for construction materials and supplies during the building of the Butt of Lewis lighthouse from 1859 to 1862.

Local residents maintain traditional fishing practices at Port Stoth, continuing maritime traditions that span multiple generations in the Outer Hebrides community.

Visitors can access the inlet via a track leading to a slipway that extends across the sandy beach, providing entry points for small vessels.

The inlet contains remains of historical maritime infrastructure, including a brick storage building and concrete bases used for cargo operations until 1960.
