Pea Island was once owned by the Huguenot Yacht Club which is based on nearby Neptune Island in New Rochelle's "Lower Harbor". A 1992 storm destroyed most of the club's structures on the Island.[2]
In June 2019, Pea Island and nearby Columbia Island were jointly put on sale with a list price of $13 million.[3][4]
