Fair Isle (from Old Norse Frjóey) is an island off Scotland, lying around halfway between Shetland and the Orkney Islands at 59°32′N, 1°32′W. Three miles (4.8 km) in length and 1.5 miles (2.4 km) wide, it has an area of 1402 acres (2.2 square miles or 5.61 km²). The island is situated around 25 miles (40 km) south-west of Sumburgh Head on the Shetland mainland. Although it is marginally closer to North Ronaldsay Orkney, Fair Isle is administratively part of Shetland. It gives its name to one of the British Sea Areas.
