Tarner Island is a triangular shaped island in Loch Bracadale just off the coast off the Harlosh peninsula of Skye in Scotland.[1][2] It is about {{convert|28|ha|acre}} in extent.

The coastline is largely cliff-lined and rocky and there is a natural arch to the north. Tarner Island is only about {{convert|1|km|mi}} from mainland Skye and there are several skerries including Sgeir Mhòr and Sgeir Bheag that lies just offshore to the north east between the island and Colbost Head.[1] Wiay and the tidal islet of Oronsay lie about {{convert|2|km|mi}} to the south.
