Whiddy Island (Irish: Oilean Faoide) is an island near the head of Bantry Bay, Ireland. It is approximately 3.5 miles long and 1.5 miles wide. The topography comprises gently-rolling glacial till, with relatively fertile soil. As late as 1880 it had a resident population of around 450, mainly engaged in fishing and small-scale farming. It currently has a permanent, resident population of 22 people, although there are many visitors in the tourist season, many staying in self-catering accommodation, in the form of several restored traditional island cottages. The island is linked to the mainland by the local ferry, The Ocean Star, with return trips several times a day. There is one pub, The Bank House, which opens regularly and also serves food during the summer months. The present-day economy is mainly fuelled by the fishing and farming industries. Due to its mild winter temperatures it has a local reputation for producing the region's earliest potato crop.
