Uig and the Hebrides in general are the perfect place to relax and unwind. This scenic area of Lewis, on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, is an area of outstanding natural beauty with many unspoilt beaches, moorland, lochs and coastal scenery.
It is great for the hillwalker, fisherman/woman, nature-watcher, historian. The ever-changing light in the Outer Hebrides is of amazing quality for the photographer. Catch the early morning light or evening sunsets for breathtaking images.
Children-fly your kites, build sandcastles, run barefoot on sands, paddle in the incoming tide, float with body-boards,search the sea shore for crabs, swim if you wish!
Uig has its very own distillery at Abhainn Dearg which is just across the bay
