Beaverwick

Beaverwick is a Lovian hamlet of Newhaven in the State of Kings. It is located at the northern tip of Kings Island, where the proposed Highway 3 ends. Beaverwick is home to several ferries to Sofasi, Adoha, Kinley, Bird National Park and Newhaven.

History
In 1938, Lovian fishermen asked for a new boatdock. This was built, at the northern tip of Kings Island, in 1943. The dock was enlarged in 1950. On a year basis, the dock was used by about 300 fishing boats. Also, ferries to and from Seven and Clymene came in frequently. In the mid-1960s, the surrounding fishermen houses developed into a small hamlet, that was only accessible by boat or by foot. In 1964, the present name of Beaverwick was given to the dock and hamlet. That same year was the dock's top year.

In the 1980s the fishing industry in Beaverwick decreased heavily. In those days, many docks stood empty for months. This trend continued in the 1990s. Cause for this great decline was Beaverwick's lack of road connections. When the economy started to grow again in late 2009, for the first time in 27 years, plans were made to connect the hamlet with Newhaven by a highway. This was part of the 2010 highway plan by Secretary of Energy, Environment and Transportation Andy McCandless.
