Roque Bluffs Poverty Island

Poverty Island is comprised of 4 acres of mature woodlands in Tenney Cove with 2,384 feet of water frontage with serene westerly views. The island, also known as Board Point, is the perfect spot to enjoy a diversity of water views at changing tides, observe a variety of birds and other wildlife, and to launch a kayak to explore the nearby protected coves.  Soils inadequate for septic system.

The island is located just minutes offshore in the Tenney Cove area of Roque Bluffs and is near the town of Jonesboro.  Poverty Island is secluded yet accessible by walking over tidal beach areas at low tide or via boat at the Roque Bluffs and Jonesboro boat launching areas.

Enjoy the beauty of Roque Bluffs State Park with its highly acclaimed half-mile sand and pebble beach along Englishman Bay, fresh water pond for swimming, hiking trails, abundant wildlife, and scenic views. Great Cove Golf Course is conveniently located a short distance away.
