Summer is coming to an end in PEI but the weather is still beautiful

Views from Thunder Cove Beach PEI beaches... When visitors think of Prince Edward Island, many immediately imagine the smooth warm sand, red sandstone cliffs, soft blue sky, and the white-capped waves of the surrounding seas. We have eleven hundred kilometres of shoreline, much of it in the form of pristine beaches. It's what English, French, Scottish, and Irish settlers first saw when they arrived here centuries ago. And often, it's still the first place visitors head when t...hey arrive today. Whether you prefer napping in the sun, splashing in the water, building a sandcastle, enjoying a leisurely stroll, or capturing that unforgettable sunset, there's a beach that's perfect for it.

Due to extreme shallow water, jumping or diving at Basin Head provincial park is prohibited.

Thank you to all those that were looking to book #LittleBlueCottage this year. We had an overwhelming response! Check back with us early next year to reserve your spot for Summer 2021! Beautiful views from PEI #oceanview #seaside #PEI #summer2021 #reserveyourspot #vacation #canadiantravel

Our waters teem with fish, as well as lobster, oysters, and other shellfish. Ask almost anyone in the world where the best mussels come from, and they'll tell you: Prince Edward Island. Our farmers and fishermen provide the ingredients and our award-winning chefs turn those fresh ingredients into culinary masterpieces.

Due to the high winds and close proximity to the ocean and beach, the roofs usually take quite a beating, so metal roofs are a great long lasting alternative. The Little Blue Cottage just got its own metal roof upgrade! Winter here we come:)

Beautiful Thunder Cove Views!!

Views from the Beach & surrounding area of Thunder Cove Beach, PEI! Prince Edward Island is as pretty as a storybook: like the classic story from Anne of Green Gables. The island is red from coast to coast, rich, sienna-colored soil nourishes luminous green pastures and shores are lined with rose and golden sand. A patchwork of lush rolling fields, tidy gabled farmhouses and seaside villages. The island is largely self-sufficient and has gained a reputation as a farm- and ocean-to-table culinary destination. Its size makes it easy to explore by car or bike the island's Confederation Trail is one of the world's best cycling destinations and the people are warm and inviting.

It's been a long Winter! Looking forward to the warm sand and sunshine

THUNDER COVE BEACH #ThunderCove Beach is one of those hidden gems that locals try to keep for themselves. It’s off-the-beaten-path in Darnley, just outside of Kensington. While most of PEI’s north shore is known for epic rolling dunes and wide beaches of fine sand, Thunder Cove is so much different. The shore and beach is geologically diverse and a real-time example of how water and wind shape and change the Island landscape. The sandstone cliffs, columns (sea stacks) and cav...e formations are never the same way twice, completely at the mercy of a restless stone carver nature! If you’re looking in the right direction, you can imagine you’re standing in the Arizona Desert. Well if the desert overlooked the Atlantic Ocean. Cliffs and dunes surround the beach. Bring your beach blanket and let your worries be washed away by the gentle waves rolling in from the sea. Click on the lick for more info https://welcomepei.com/beaches/thunder-cove-beach See more
