Nut Island is a small island in Lake Ontario. It is part of the Province of Ontario, and is located just south of larger Amherst Island, near Kingston, Ontario.[1][2]

The schooner Vienna ran aground on the Island in 1893.[1]

Amherst, Nut, and other nearby Islands are visited by bird watchers, during the annual migration periods.[2]
