Shoal Tickle is an abandoned community on Fogo Island, Newfoundland. Resettlement took place in the 1930s. It's one of four places in the immediate area that met a similar fate.
The sign board reads:
Shoal Tickle was the smallest of the four communities which sprung up outside the Town of Fogo. A number of families, each of which had the last name Leyte lived here. It was also one of the first of the four 'trail' settlements to have been abandoned - this having taken place by the early 1930's. Families here moved to either Fogo or to the Gander Bay area.
