Prince County

Prince Edward Island

Near the end of summerside boardwalk, just before the unfinished hotel. There's a really good spot for bird photography. Blue Jays, sparrows,woodpeckers, ducks and many more.
The long, perfectly shaped rows of potatoes.
West Point Lighthouse was the second lighthouse I visited while on the island. This lighthouse is unique from the others as it's considered a second generation of lighthouses due to its shape. You will also notice that the lines are painted black instead of red like other houses. This was done because the lighthouse was difficult to see due to its reflection off the red sandy beaches or how the sun reflected off the building. This made it easier for sailors to spot it during bright conditions. There is a small fee to visit the lighthouse, and you can go right to the top to view it actually working. So many lighthouses I've been to are no longer active so this was a treat to see.
Cape Egmont's lighthouse overlooks a natural rock arch. #beachtips
The Bottle Houses at Cape Egmont are a fun local site.
