Panmure Island Beach
Panmure Island Beach is a long white sandy beach shouldered by sweeping sand dunes and vast ocean views. Much-loved by locals and visitors alike, Panmure Island is truly a beach-lover’s paradise. Located along a causeway, there is water access on both sides of the highway. You’ll find the sheltered St. Mary’s Bay on one side and the ocean on the other. This beach is one of Prince Edward Island’s provincial parks and with that comes all the amenities you need – showers, bathrooms, and a convenience store.
Insider’s Tip: The First Nations People hold an annual Pow Wow at Panmure Island in August. This two day cultural celebration includes drum bands, native crafts and a healing sweat tent.
