Isle Of Benbecula
Benbecula is an island of the Outer Hebrides, in the Atlantic Sea off the west shore of Scotland. In the 2011 census it had a normally resident population of 1,283, with a sizable percentage of Roman Catholics. It creates part of the area provided by Comhairle nan Eilean Siar or the Western Isles Council. The island has to do with 12 kilometres from west to east as well as a similar range from north to south. It exists between the islands of North Uist and also South Uist; it is connected to both by road causeways. Travel to any of the various other Hebridean islands, or to the British landmass, is by air or sea. Benbecula Airport on the island has day-to-day flights to Glasgow, Stornoway and Barra. A straight solution to Inverness was introduced in 2006 but discontinued in May 2007. There are no straight ferryboat services from Benbecula to the landmass, but a service run by Caledonian MacBrayne from Lochboisdale on South Uist provides a five-hour going across to Oban on the landmass, whilst an additional service from Lochmaddy on North Uist offers a two-hour going across to Uig on the Inner Hebridean island of Skye, and for this reason to the landmass by means of the Skye Bridge. Ferry services from the islands of Berneray (linked by embankment to North Uist) and Eriskay (connected to South Uist) attach to the various other Outer Hebridean islands of Harris and also Barra respectively. There is a dense collection of lochs across almost the whole island, as well as mostly all of the island is listed below 20 metres in elevation.
