The wildlife on low lying North Ronaldsay is rich and varied.  Well known by ornithologists as a resting place for migrating birds, a number of rare species are recorded as having visited the island each year. During the summer the cries of breeding birds fill the air. Grey and Common seals, easily seen from the shore, live and breed around North Ronaldsay.  Porpoises can occasionally be spotted escorting fishing boats with their catches.

Traditional values seep through the very soil of this island.  You will have time to stand, to think, to cleanse your mind of everyday baggage and focus on what is important in your life.
