Saint Sanctain or Sanctan was a 6th-century Manx bishop, who originally came from Northern Britain. Sanctan was the son of l, a king in Northern Britain.

He was an active missionary in Cumbria, before becoming Bishop of the unidentified Cell da les (or 'church of the two forts'). This may be Kill-na-Sanctan near Dublin or on the Isle of Man, where the civil parish of Santon is named after him. His feast day is on May 20.
