FLINT ISLANDS

Ward Harbor (49°37'N., 55°41'W.), indenting the N side of Long Island, affords good anchorage to small craft. There is a settlement and pier in the harbor. The W side of Long Island is fringed by the Flint Islands (49°37'N., 55°43'W.) and fronted by the Oil Islands (49°36'N., 55°44'W.). Lewis Island, 7m high, lies on foul ground 0.75 mile S of the NW extremity of Long Island and 0.25 mile off its W side. There are below water rocks within 0.15 and 0.5 mile WNW of Lewis Island; the shallowest has a depth of 1.8m or less. Suley Ann Rock (Hail Island) (49°36'N., 55°46'W.), above water, is the outermost danger along this coast.
