Rocabarra or Rocabarraigh is a phantom island or rock in Scottish Gaelic myth, which is supposed to appear three times, the last being at the end of the world. "Nuair a thig Rocabarra ris, is dual gun tèid an Saoghal a sgrios" ("When Rocabarra returns, the world will likely come to be destroyed/ruined") The name has also been used to refer to Rockall, a real islet in the North Atlantic.
