Sanda Island stamps
P=have O=don’t have it
Sanda Island
is a small privately owned island in Argyll and Bute, Scotland,
off the southern tip of the Kintyre peninsula,
near Southend and Dunaverty
Castle.
On clear days Sanda can
be seen from the southern tip of the Kintyre
peninsula, from the Isle of Arran and from northeast County
Antrim. It is known locally on Arran and on the Antrim coast as "Spoon
Island" because of its resemblance to an upturned spoon.
Local stamps have been issued for Sanda since 1962. The stamps served the resident staff
employed by the Northern Lighthouse Board, the owners and the many
visitors to the island who wished to have their mail posted there, and carried
to the nearest GPO post box on the mainland.
