Bayble Island (Scottish Gaelic:Eilean Phabail) is an uninhabited island off the south coast of theEye Peninsula ofLewis, in theOuter Hebrides of Scotland.
Bayble Island lies at the southern end of Bayble Bay (Pabail Bay). It consists of two islands, Eilean Mòr Phabaill and Eilean Beag Phabaill,[1] but these appear as a single island from most directions. The hamlets ofUpper andLower Bayble overlook the island and bay.[2]
Rats are thought to have arrived on the island, as to theShiant Islands, from a shipwreck (although this may be folklore).[citation needed]Gannets and other seabirds can be seen on the island and diving into the surrounding waters.
