About

Shetland South ward encompasses the southern third of Shetland's Mainland, stretching from the Tingwall valley down to Sumburgh Head. The landscape is defined by long, rolling hills and a deeply indented coastline with numerous sea inlets and voes. The area is primarily agricultural, with scattered crofting townships and larger settlements like Sandwick and Dunrossness. Sumburgh Airport, the islands' main air gateway, is located here near the historic Jarlshof archaeological site.

The ward's coastline is significant, featuring the exposed headlands of Fitful Head and Sumburgh Head, an important seabird colony. The area includes the island of Mousa, known for its exceptionally well-preserved Iron Age broch. Economic activity centres on aquaculture, particularly salmon farming in sheltered voes, alongside traditional sheep rearing and some oil-related services linked to Sumburgh. The landscape is open and often treeless, shaped by strong Atlantic winds.
