A tiny tear-drop shaped islet situated to the south of Esha Ness in the Northmavine district of the Shetland Mainland, Dore Holm lies 1¼ miles (2 km) southwest of Tangwick. It rises steeply to a height of 36m (118 feet) and has a remarkable natural arch - said to be the finest in Shetland - on its western side.
