Forsan is a waterfall on the mainland of the Shetland Isles in Scotland.[1] It lies in the Clift Hills on the Burn of Mail near its confluence with the Burn of the Run beneath Scroo hill in the Cunningsburgh district south of Lerwick.

The name is probably derived from Old Norse in which fors or foss means waterfall.[2]
