The Sands of Evie is a sandy beach landform protected by the Point of Hellia headland on Mainland Orkney, Scotland.〔UK Ordnance Survey Map Landranger map, Orkney, 1:50,000 scale (2002)〕 This beach forms the southern boundary of Aikerness Bay, an element of Eynhallow Sound. Immediately to the east is Gurness, a rather well preserved Iron Age broch. According to C.Michael Hogan the Gurness Broch is of drystone construction and "the Iron Age round tower fort is flanked by a number of ancillary structures and impressive concentric ditch and rampart outer defences; moreover, the rocky shoreline cliffs posed a formidable approach for marine invaders".〔C.Michael Hogan, ''Gurness'', The Megalithic Portal, ed. Andy Burnham, 2 December 2007 ()〕 A Pictish slab was discovered on the Sands of Evie.〔(''Two New Pictish Symbol Stones from Orkney'' )〕 ==See also==
