St Margaret's Hope is the main centre in South Ronaldsay. There are a few shops, a post office, garage and places to eat. Further a field is the Tomb of the Eagles and the Hoxa Tapestry.
The Blacksmith's Smithy is well worth a visit, as is the Craft workshop, which displays a variety of local craftwork.
Wildlife, sea angling and scenic trips can be arranged, with regular sightings in season of puffins, porpoise, grey and common seals.
For any golfing enthusiasts, a new 9 hole course is due to open in August of this year, and you could also enjoy a leisurely afternoon at the local bowling green.
