Prince Edward Island Is One of the Best Places to Travel

"A coastal provincial park famed for its white 'singing sands' that squeak underfoot due to high silica content, with beaches and recreational opportunities that make it a standout stop on the Points East Coastal Drive." - Julia Eskins Julia Eskins Julia Eskins is a writer and editor covering travel, design, and culture.

one of the nicest beach in pei toilet & changing room wheelchair accessible the sand is white and the water is warm, also love the bridge you can jump from!

Make this beach a priority for your trip. The jumping bridge waterway will push you into the open ocean or you can climb a ladder to return for another round faster. Life guards are available but always be safe! Lots of wildlife around, some crabs, birds and dolphins to see.

What a cool place !!! Bring your bath suit to enjoy the beaches or to jump off the bridge into the fast flowing water.

Home of the Singing Sands beach. Just wonderful! My family’s favorite beach on our PEI vacation. Don’t miss the bridge jumping! Go at low tide, easier to wade out to the sand bar just off shore.

Lovely place to jump into the ocean. Beach has washrooms and lifeguards. Only issue we had is the sand bugs, they were a little intense.

Wonderful beach with plenty of parking spaces, interesting tide lake, and very clean sand. Lots of young people are jumping and swimming in the tide current.

beautiful beach! seems in the peak of summer there’s lots of amenities around to keep guests comfortable and entertained. there’s a small museum nearby but it was closed by the time we got there. this beach is super long and i think you could probably walk for at least 1 hour or more along this stretch! we saw some cute kind of plovers species and the water was warm for september. will definitely come back next time we are in pei :D
