Coastal Lighthouse O'Leary Prince Edward Island Canada

O'Leary

Jumping on over to Morelle, PEI where I spent a few days exploring the area, you can find beautiful sandy beaches nearby. What I found interesting is that the north end of PEI is mostly white sandy beaches, the south side are red sand beaches. In Morelle, the land is red but as soon as you hit the beach, it turns white with beautiful large and protected sand dunes. There are no short supply of beaches on PEI so you never feel crowded by people. The north end in this particular location was very little rocks so it's best for swimming and lounging on the beach. It's also the best spot to watch the most incredible sunset ever.

Morell

Argyle Shore Provincial Park can be found on the south side of the island and thus home to the beautiful red beaches PEI is known for. This park while small is very beautiful and the perfect spot for a picnic, swim, or just relaxing. There are stairs that lead you down to the water during low tide but be sure to get out before water levels rise. The park offers free parking, washrooms, a playground and is pet friendly.
