Swindle Island is an
island on the coast of the
Canadian province of
British Columbia. It is located at the southeastern end of
Hecate Strait and the northeastern end of
Queen Charlotte Sound.
Price Island lies just south of Swindle Island. Both are located within the
Kitimat-Stikine Regional District.
Swindle Island is part of a volcanic center called the Milbanke Sound Group which includes several monogenetic cinder cones. Kitasu Hill on the western side of Swindle Island is a young basaltic cinder cone that produced lava flows that extend to the north.
