There is also a similarly named island of Grímsey in Iceland.


Grimsay (Scottish Gaelic: Griomasaigh) is an island in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland, linked to both North Uist and Benbecula by causeways.

Grimsay's main settlements are Baymore (Bàgh Mòr) and Kallin (Ceallan). The island's main industry is lobster fishing, although boat building was previously important.

East of Grimsay lie several smaller islands including Ronay which was inhabited until the 1920s.
