Tour Scotland Uig Isle Of Lewis video. Uig is located on the western coast of the island of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides, Scotland. The name derives from the Norse word Vik meaning 'a bay'. Uig Beach is surrounded by the villages of Crowlista, Timdgarry, Ardroil and Carnish. It is best known as the site where the Lewis Chessmen were found. Before 1831, a local crofter discovered a buried hoard of chess pieces, uncovered following a storm.
