The Brough of Birsay is an uninhabited tidal island off the north-west coast of The Mainland of Orkney, Scotland, in the parish of Birsay. It is located around 13 miles north of Stromness and features the remains of Pictish and Norse settlements as well as a modern light house.
The island is accessible on foot at low tide via a largely natural causeway. It is separated from the mainland by a 240-metre stretch of water at high tide: the Sound of Birsay.
