Crow Island is an undeveloped island in the West Isles Parish of Charlotte County, New Brunswick, Canada, where the Bay of Fundy enters Passamaquoddy Bay. [1] [2] [3]

It is located off the east coast of Stuart Town, Deer Island, before the Partridge Islands. It is one the primary Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture sites in the region, combining mussels and kelp - as well as 15 salmon cages under Cooke Aquaculture. [4] [5]

From at least 1910-1912, the family of Fred Lodge of Eastport, Maine wintered on Crow Island. [6] [7]
