No. You'd be thinking of Swale, but it's on the mainland by about 100 yards, in the shadow of the newer Sheppey Crossing.
The Isle of Thanet hasn't been an island since about 1700, although once or twice flooding in the North Sea has made it temporarily so again. Most recently in 1953.
Off topic, so shoot me down, but...
Bought my first house in Sittingbourne, and took driving lessons. My instructor told me of a 19 year old from Sheppey who he had taken for his driving test in Gillingham, and this had been the first time he had ever left the Isle!
