Lochs on islands

There are a very large number of lochs on the list of islands of Scotland, islands of Scotland, with the greatest density occurring in the Outer Hebrides. North Uist, North and

and Isle of Lewis, Lewis in particular have landscapes with a high percentage of freshwater and a maze and complexity of loch shapes. Harris, Outer Hebrides, Harris has fewer large bodies of water but innumerable small lochans.

Larger

Those listed in this section are confined to the larger or otherwise notable lochs. Loch Orasaigh in Lewis is only about in extent but the island of Rainish Eilean Mòr is probably the largest island in Scotland relative to the size of the body of water it sits in, as it takes up about 20% of the loch's surface area. The meanings of the names are generally derived from Scottish Gaelic language, Gaelic, Old Norse or Scots.

Smaller

Less substantial lochs include the following. * Lismore, Scotland, Lismore: Loch Fiart, Kilcheran Loch, Loch Baile a' Ghobhainn * Orkney: see List of lochs in Orkney * Shetland: **Mainland Shetland: Clickimin Loch **Whalsay: Loch of Houll, Loch of Huxter, Loch of Isbister, Loch of Livister, Sandwick, Whalsay, Loch of Sandwick, Loch of Stanefield, Loch of Vats-houll, Nuckro Water, East Loch of Skaw, West Loch of Skaw Loch Leathan from near Storr 2007-08-22
