Hebrides

A spread-out and diverse group of islands off the west coast of Scotland, the Hebrides are divided into two categories:

The Isle of Skye and Small Isles have been separated from the Hebrides although they are often considered part of them.


Notes: The term Western Isles is often used to refer to the Hebrides as a whole although it more accurately refers to the Outer Hebrides.

See also: Islands of the lower Firth of Clyde, Orkney Islands, Shetland Islands


The New Hebrides are an island group in the South Pacific that now form the nation of Vanuatu.
