There is no Street View here:

But this location plays a non-trivial role in the film.

Not particularly, I went up the coastline, over the Maritimes, then across the infinite sea.

Yes.

I don't believe the name of the island was mentioned, but it would have been somewhat apt if it had.

Care to toss us another clue, or shall I continue throwing out obscure Canadiana? ;)

Is the island playing itself, a generic island, or a specific island that's somewhere else?

The island is a place that has personal significance to one of the characters in the film. One island would have done more or less as well as another. They could probably even have used a non-island location.

Alrighty, I'm sure this is a giveaway for some, but I really liked the movie.
