Hardwicke Island lies directly off the coast of the village of Sayward and to the east of its neighbour West Thurlow Island. Hardwicke Island is located within Electoral Area C of the Strathcona Regional District.
Hardwicke Island is closely connected to the Bendickson, a Norwegian family who began logging operations on the island beginning in 1918, and who continued thereafter to live on or visit the island while growing fruit and vegetables there. Today, the island is base to the Hardwicke Transportation company which provides Water Taxi and small freight shipping services around the region.
