Panmure Island Provincial Park

Gorgeous Beach. While the water is a bit colder than some beaches, once you got in it was refreshing and very clear. The water was relatively calm, so much so I was able to paddle board in the unsupervised area. No flotation devices allowed in the area supervised by the lifeguard. Great little ice cream shop, and the bathroom amenities were clean.

Our first campsite during our four-day stay on the island was a delightful experience. Arriving on July 20th, we found the campsite divided into two sections: one situated on the lower side with a ocean view, and the other on the opposite side of the road, separated by trees that still allowed glimpses of stunning sunsets. The well-maintained campsite featured clean, grassy areas equipped with picnic tables and fire pits. We were not ocean front. Campsites are close to trees. Wide enough to fit small camper, clam and kitchen tent. No trees between sites and some people said it was a little close to eachother. Nothing that bothered us! We had the pleasure of having PE folks beside us that gave us great directions and PE stories :) Since finalizing built of office and facilities, children playground does not have much at this time. Part of the playset was unaccessible due to restoration. Understandable. The shower and bathroom facilities on our side were new, impeccably clean, and well-kept. Additionally, a modern laundry facility was available, functioning efficiently at a cost of $2 for wash/dry cycles (loonies only available at the park office). In front of the campsite lay a clay beach with ocean views. However, a short walk or drive a couple of minutes towards the lighthouse through the road that divided the ocean revealed a mesmerizing, mile-long beach. This secluded beach was a serene oasis, offering tranquility and space for visitors to choose their spot, relax with a book, or let their children play freely. Although lacking facilities, this beach was free to access and had an adjacent ice cream/food shop with parking. While some areas of the beach had a rocky bed, a short walk revealed a sandy bottom with shallow waters. Beautiful for leisurely strolls. You could walk in the ocean a considerable distance before the water deepened significantly. We highly recommend this beach experience. Remember to bring a picnic, a tent for shade and wind protection, and enjoy the peaceful beauty of this hidden gem. And take a drive on the island. You get glimpses of the ocean. But what makes it great is the roadside kiosk with honey, peony jelly, eggs, a bit of art (beewax candles) available for sale - money in jars. We loved the honey, peony jelly and fresh farm eggs! And, take a 15 min drive early morning or evening after 7pm to go see the herd of Buffalos in a well kept park for free. Absolutely beautiful! There is a walking path with observation post or small driving path, you can see them closely! Grocery shopping - about 18 minutes away in Montague.

Grew up on this beach. It's amazing winter, summer, day or night. It has both sandy ocean side and access to clay beach bay side as the road runs between them. Great for swimming, paddling, dog walking, campfires and amazing sunsets.

Unfortunately this review will only send light on how hidden and wonderful this place is. It is a quick 2km walk to the most beautiful beach I have ever seen. Absolutely clean. Absolutely no garbage anywhere. This is a pristine area almost untouched by anyone.

Very nice beach with a large paved parking lot very close by. There is also a place to eat at the end of the parking lot. We didn't check it out, but boy, that is convenient to have a place to get something to eat right at the beach. Lots of people were sunning today, but only a handful of brave souls in the cold water. Stop and check the beach out. Beautiful sandy beach and plenty of room to spread out.

Panmure Beach was part of an unexpected short stop during a drive. The kids enjoyed the beach and we were able to catch the sunset, but I wouldn't go out of my way to visit this spot. There are many more noteworthy beaches to visit in PEI. Nonetheless, still pretty, but there's not much else around.

Quite an amazing place. Imagine Greenwich National park quality Beach but with less people and more calm. Plenty of clams to fish too on the opposite side of the road. There's lifeguard on the beach too.

Beautiful sand and water.not a far walk, you can park the car real close. Lighthouse and cliff views
