Laxo is a small settlement at the end of Laxo Voe in Vidlin, Shetland, Scotland.

A ferry from the Mainland to Symbister in Whalsay operates from the nearby Laxo Ferry Terminal,{{cite web|url=http://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/whalsay/ferry/|title=Whalsay Ferry|publisher=Undiscovered Scotland|accessdate=15 December 2014}} and is operated by the Shetland Islands Council.

North of Laxo is the Hill of Laxowater and a 1 km long loch called Laxo Water which is an excellent trout fishing location.

Laxo Cottage, a distinctive white house with black corner stones, used to be the water bailiff's house.
