Bell Island is a Canadian island located off Newfoundland's Avalon Peninsula in Conception Bay.
Measuring 9 km in length and 3 km in width, Bell Island has an area of 34 km². The subsurface is composed of Ordovician sandstone and shale with red hematite.
It is home to three communities, the largest of which is the incorporated town of Wabana.
The provincial government operates a ferry service from Portugal Cove to Bell island daily. It is primarily used by commuters who work in the St. John's metropolitan area.
