This is such a fantastic bit of beach, one of the few undeveloped stretches to be found anywhere on the east coast. All told I think this stretch is about 6 miles long and is undeveloped because it's a barrier beach cut off at both ends by inlets to salt water lagoons. I walked north for about 4 miles one day and didn't see another soul, just two small holiday homes set back from the beach a bit.

| Siesta on the beach |
 |
| Fun. Pure FUN. That's all. |
 |
| Beach Art |
 |
| Protection from sand flies, deer flies, mosquitoes and no-see-ums. (This beach scores 10/10 but would be a 12 if there were fewer bugs) |
 |
| Barrier dune system, looking Northest towards the eastern most point of PEI. |
 |
| Looking Southwest towards a little boy |
 |
| All day play |
 |
| This little aircraft was using the deserted beach (apart from us) for practice landings. |
 |
| He did a touch and go on one side, then climbed up and over us and then landed on the other side. |
 |
| Storm rolling in. |
 |
| Evening walk to see piping plovers |
Other day time beach things not photographed... long walk, skinny dipping, naked walks (little kids and big kids alike), picnic, collecting driftwood, seagull's shell-dropping spot, sand bars in the sea, gentle place to learn about rip tides, sand dune fun, views of Cape Breton and lots more.
