The '''Outer Hebrides''' are a group of islands off the West coast of [[Scotland]]. They are separated from the [[Inner Hebrides]] and the Scottish mainland by the Minch and the Sea of the Hebrides.
The main islands of the Outer Hebrides are Lewis and Harris, North Uist, Benbecula, South Uist and Barra. The archipelago of [[St Kilda]] and occasionally even the distant islet of [[Rockall]] are also sometimes included amongst the group.
The largest town is [[Stornoway]].
The Outer Hebrides are the last part of the British Isles in which Scottish [[Gaelic]] is still widely spoken.
