Brough Geo

Bay

Why this matters

Brough Geo is a sea cave or rocky inlet carved into the basaltic or metamorphic rocks of the Orkney Islands, likely formed by wave action during the Holocene epoch. Its notable erosion features and coastal dynamics make it a common geomorphological feature in the basaltic landscapes of northern Scotland.
