Eileach to Naoimh is a narrow, elongated, today small uninhabited island off the west coast of Scotland. The Gaelic name means " rock of the saints." It is the southernmost of the five Garvellachs (also called Isles of the Sea ), which lie in the Firth of Lorne, south of the Isle of Mull and administratively belonging to the unitary authority Argyll and Bute.

The archipelago is one of the Inner Hebrides. The Garvellachs are accessible from Tobernorochy on the island of Luing by boat.

In early Christian times a monastery or a hermitage was founded, which is known as Columban monastery today. From this period dates a well preserved double beehive hut. " Eithnes grave " consists of an enclosure, which is regarded as the mother of St. Columba grave. One of the plates is a Cross - Slab. The Church's supply of the island during the Middle Ages is occupied by a cemetery with three stone crosses and two small chapels. The oldest is rectangular and dates from the 11th or 12th century. " The Harp " (or at Clarsach ) is a natural rock arch in the northern part of the island on the steep west side. In the south of the island is a 1904 installed, automated in 2003 beacon.
