Stroms Hellier
Stroms Hellier (Stroms Heelor) is a steep-sided rocky cove located off the Swartz Geo inlet on Fair Isle in the Scottish Shetland Islands. On 27 September 1588 one of the vessels of the Spanish Armada, El Gran Grifón, foundered here during the night, and many of the ship's crew climbed her masts as she was sinking and made it to shore. According to one account, the islanders welcomed them and the Spanish behaved well and stayed for two months.
