3 Best Sights in Points East Coastal Drive, Prince Edward Island

Overlooking the Northumberland Strait, this small museum depicts the ever-changing nature of PEI's inshore fishing industry through artifacts, exhibits, and dioramas. The museum also hosts events, including demonstrations, music, food sampling, and art exhibitions.

This park, 13 km (8 miles) east of Souris, is noted for an expanse of exquisite silvery sand that's backed by grassy dunes. The beach (accessible via a boardwalk and supervised in peak months) is well worth visiting, and not only because it's one of the Island's most beautiful. If you scuff your feet in the sand here, you can hear it squeak and squawk. The so-called singing sand is a rare phenomenon produced by the sand's high silica content. For visitors with mobility issues a floating wheelchair is available when conditions are safe.

In Rollo Bay, just west of Souris, handcrafted spirits like vodka, gin, rum, whiskey, brandy, and pastis are produced; the brandy is made with grapes from their own vineyard, and the Physike's Garden Gin is infused with 20 herbs grown on the island. Tours (for up to 10 people at a time) and tastings are offered May through September. Tours are free, but any voluntary donations are passed on to the local hospital. Products can be purchased on-site or online.
