Where can I see the northern lights in the UK? Northumberland has been named as one of the areas most likely to see the light show, with many sightings having already taken place over the past week. Northern Scotland is one of the best place to see the northern lights, around the northern isles and around the Caithness coast and the Orkney Isles. Shetland and the Outer Hebrides are also prime spots to view the display, as they have low light pollution. Spectacular photos of the aurora borealis have been taken in Gamrie Bay in Aberdeenshire.
