Eyl is a town in the northern Puntland region of Somalia. The prominent clans in the Eyl district are the Majeerteen and Leelkase sub-clans of the Darod.

Eyl is near the Hafun peninsula, the location of most of Somalia's casualties from the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami. As of 2008 Eyl has become a pirate haven, with more than a dozen ships being held captive by pirate crews. [http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/7637257.stm] The Puntland government has acknowledged that they are relatively powerless to stop pirate activities. [http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/7618142.stm] Presently Eyl is so heavily fortified that the French Military refuses to approach the area.Fact|date=October 2008
