Sarclet is a remote, clifftop crofting township on the east coast of Caithness, sitting to the north of Loch Sarclet.
Sarclet Head, half a mile southeast of the township, extends into the sea. Sarclet has a natural harbour called The Haven which was formerly used by fishing boats, but is now largely unused.
The village of Thrumster stands half a mile to the north-west, and the county town, Wick, is five miles north of Sarclet.
