Moose Factory Island, River island in Ontario, Canada.
Located at the mouth of the Moose River near James Bay, Moose Factory Island spans 5.25 square kilometers with a 9.5-kilometer coastline.
The Hudson's Bay Company established Moose Fort on the island in 1673, making it the second English-speaking settlement in Ontario after Kingston.
The northern section contains Factory Island Indian Reserve 1, where the Moose Cree First Nation maintains their traditions through the Cree Cultural Interpretive Centre.
Access to the island requires water transportation during summer months, with boat taxis connecting visitors from the mainland settlement of Moosonee.
The island experiences daily Arctic tidal fluctuations of up to 2.5 meters due to its proximity to James Bay.
