Savage Harbour is the name of a Canadian rural community and adjacent bay located on the boundary of Queens County and Kings County, Prince Edward Island. It is located in the township of Lot 38, north of Mount Stewart. It is adjacent to the Crowbush Cove Wharf small craft harbour, formerly known as the Savage Harbour small craft harbour.
In 2022, the chief of nearby Abegweit First Nation began an effort to change the name of the community and bay, due to negative associations of the term "savage" as it relates to indigenous peoples. In 2025, the Government of Prince Edward Island announced that the community and bay would be officially renamed, and the community would be canvassed to aid in determining the new name(s).
