About Eday......
Eday lies in the heart of Orkney's Northern Isles, some 16 miles north of Kirkwall. The island's landscape is a mixture of hilly moorland and farmland with beautiful sandy beaches, rocky shores and dramatic sea cliffs.
The population is currently at approximately 150, but with an influx of around 17 new folk in 2008 alone, Eday is experiencing something of a boom!
The island's main economic activity is agriculture, with tourism being an increasingly important feature. The community shop, health surgery and fire and ambulance services, all support essential community needs whilst for entertainment the local pub, cafe, Heritage Centre and Youth Hostel ensure there is plenty to do for islanders and visitors alike.
