St Margarets Hope
Ferry Port Overview
St Margaret's Hope, also known as The Hope, is a
village in the Orkneys, located off Scotland's
north-east coast. The word Hope comes from the
Norse word 'hjop', which means bay.
St. Margaret's Hope has a number of shops and
restaurants and is famous for its annual Boys'
Ploughing Match, a festival where young boys
plough in the sands of the Sand of Wright, while
girls wear traditional costumes.
If you catch a St Margaret's Hope ferry, do not
forget to visit the Smiddy Museum, with lots of
old blacksmith's tools to try out and lots of
old photographs.
