Dominated by beautiful sand dunes and unspoilt beaches, Sanday is the largest of the Northern Orkney Islands and Orkney's third largest island.

The appropriately-named Sanday is mostly made up sand dunes, which gives it some brilliant beaches - fine sweeps of white sand and clear blue sea.

Orkney, also known as the Orkney Islands, is an archipelago comprising about 70 islands situated some 10 miles north of the Scottish mainland. Orkney's largest settlement and also its administrative centre is Kirkwall.

Sanday is widely regarded as the most beautiful and scenic of the islands and possesses a major draw- not just for new inhabitants but for wildlife as well.

Sanday is a haven for wildlife lovers with orca, walruses and dolphins amongst the regular visitors to the island.

The islands have been inhabited for at least 8,500 years, originally occupied by Mesolithic and Neolithic tribes and then by the Picts. Orkney was colonised and later annexed by the Kingdom of Norway in 875 and settled by the Norseman. In 1472 the parliament of Scotland absorbed the Earldom of Orkney into the Kingdom of Scotland following failure to pay a dowry promised to James III of Scotland by the family of his bride, Margaret of Denmark. The Norse connection with Orkney is strong with many links still in place, including the application of Udal Law.

Orkney contains some of the oldest and best preserved Neolithic sites in Europe. The heart of neolithic Orkney which includes the village of Skara Brae, the Standing Stones of Stenness, the Maeshowe passage grave and the Ring of Brodgar is a designated unesco World Heritage Site. Orkney also has an abundance of marine and avian wildlife.

Sanday offers a wide range of local amenities including schooling and a leisure centre. Regular ferry services to Kirkwall and Sanday Airport.
