Sanday is low-lying and, as its name suggests, is noted for many miles of dunes and fine beaches. Sanday is proud of its excellent agriculture and the island show held every August is a highlight of the calendar.
Sanday is less than two hour’s sail to Kirkwall by ro-ro ferry and there are regular daily flights too. Island amenities include a community junior high school with swimming pool, G.P practice, a range of shops and a testing nine-hole golf course.
