Islay (Gaelic Ìle, say "eye-la") is an island in the Inner Hebrides of Scotland, with a population of 3,228 in 2011. It's mostly low-lying grazing land and heath, with Port Ellen and Bowmore the main settlements. Islay is exposed to the Atlantic, with a mild climate and strong breezes, which keep the midges in check, but in winter fierce gales and storms are common, with disruption of transport. You have to travel via Islay to reach the nearby Isle of Jura.
