Big Sand (Scottish Gaelic: Sannda Mhòr) is a small remote crofting village in Highland, Scotland.[1] It is situated on the shores of the Gair Loch and is 3.5 miles from Gairloch village. As the name suggests it is situated beside a large, unspoiled beach.
The crofting village of North Erradale lies 1 mile northwest of Big Sand, along the coast road, with the village of Melvaig located 4-5 miles further north of North Erradale.
