Kempt Head Rd, Kempt Head, NS, B1X 1P7    

This is an almost island; an extraordinary geological formation that extends boldly into the Bras d`Or Lakes for a distance of 1.8 miles off South Side Boularderie. Island Point is a wild, remote and uninhabited peninsula only 30 minutes from North Sydney. The land has the typical Karst topography of eroded hills and valleys, but is resplendent with a hardwood forest that covers the entire length of the point. Its sheer white gypsum cliffs protect a long harbour while the shore is interspersed with beaches and nearly 40 foot depths almost all the way to the sand bar end. The elbow shaped connection to the Boularderie Island shore leads up a steep pitch covered with large firs to the road`s edge at the top of a ridge. 3.6 miles of shoreline, 232 acres, sand beaches, protected anchorages and wilderness character- this property is very special. With a good pair of walking shoes and stamina, you can see it all. A trail runs from the road through much of the property.
