Gasker is a small uninhabited islet in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland, 8 kilometres (4+1⁄2 nautical miles) southwest of Scarp, off the west coast of Harris. The low-lying island has never been inhabited. In spite of its small size, it has several small pools of fresh water. It is principally noted for its large well-established seal colony. Residents of Scarp once visited Gasker regularly to kill seals for food. 1.2 kilometres (5⁄8 nmi) east-southeast lies the smaller islet of Gàisgeir Beag, and some surrounding rocks.

  • Gasker is a small uninhabited islet in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland, 8 kilometres (4+1⁄2 nautical miles) southwest of Scarp, off the west coast of Harris. The low-lying island has never been inhabited. In spite of its small size, it has several small pools of fresh water. It is principally noted for its large well-established seal colony. Residents of Scarp once visited Gasker regularly to kill seals for food. There are two feasible landing spots for small craft: Geo Iar on the north side of Gasker, and Geodha Ear on the south side. A small unmanned lighthouse was built by the Northern Lighthouse Board in 1997. 1.2 kilometres (5⁄8 nmi) east-southeast lies the smaller islet of Gàisgeir Beag, and some surrounding rocks. (en)
