It is part of Presqu'ile Provincial Park. Gull Island lies between High Bluff Island and Owens Point, part of the Presqu'ile Tombolo.

The island is an important nesting site for migrating birds, so access to the public is prohibited from March 10th to September 10th.

In 2002 a 27-page management strategy recommended further measures to protect the unique environment of the island.
