*************

To tourists, one of the fascinations of the islands is their ""nightless"" summers. On the longest day in Shetland there are over 19 hours of daylight and complete darkness is unknown. This long twilight is known in the Northern Isles as the ""simmer dim"". Winter nights are correspondingly long with less than six hours of daylight at midwinter.^[23][24] At this time of year the aurora borealis can occasionally be seen on the northern horizon during moderate auroral activity.^[25]
