Lampay is an uninhabited tidal island in Loch Dunvegan, off the northwest coast of the Isle of Skye in Scotland.[1][2]
It is separated from the "mainland" of Skye by a small sound called An Doirneil. It is not far from Claigan. The island doubles in size at low tide, and is really two islands connected by a thin isthmus. It is due south of Isay.
