About Henry Island, Port Hood

Discover the extraordinary potential of Henry Island, a 220-acre private haven off the coast of Cape Breton, where a working historic lighthouse stands as a timeless symbol of Atlantic heritage. Set in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, just minutes from the world-renowned Cabot Links and Cabot Cliffs golf courses that brought this region to global acclaim, the island is ideally positioned within one of Canada’s most captivating coastal destinations. Accessible by boat or helicopter, Henry Island offers a pristine natural landscape of cliffs, sandy beaches, sheltered coves, mature forests, and sweeping ocean vistas. Its iconic 53-foot lighthouse and restored keeper’s home root the property in more than a century of maritime history. This is one of the last opportunities of its scale along Canada’s East Coast - a true blank canvas for visionaries. Whether imagined as a private estate, wellness retreat, luxury resort, or eco-conscious development, Henry Island embodies both seclusion and possibility. The surrounding region is experiencing thoughtful growth inspired by the international success of Cabot Links and Cabot Cliffs. Luxury accommodations, culinary ventures, and eco-tourism initiatives are redefining Cape Breton’s western shore, positioning Henry Island as a natural centerpiece for the next phase of this transformation. Henry Island is more than a property; it is a chance to shape a piece of Atlantic Canada’s future while honoring its storied past.
