Be prepared
Jul. 2022 • Family
Absolutely no parking. Be ready to carry your stuff for a long walk. No washrooms and no places to get food. It’s a great beach but it’s best to know about the lack of parking and washrooms before you go.

So many great beaches in Nova Scotia
Aug. 2020
Another great Nova Scotia beach. Maybe not as well known as some of the bigger ones around. The limited parking combined with the smaller size beach give it a lower rating .

Great Waves and room to spread out!
Jul. 2020
Lovely beach with great sand and sandy sea bottom near shore. No facilities and parking very limited. Be prepared to walk in with gear and walk out with your beach gear-and your trash! My husband picked up nearly a full bag of litter thrown off the boardwalk...a serious shame in the middle of an exquisite wooden boardwalk over wetlands and tall grasses. The beach and area get 5 stars--litterbugs get minus zero! Plenty of room to spread out safely during Covid-19 and active waves are lots of fun for all ages.

Great Beach - Long sandy beach and waves
Aug. 2019 • Family
Great beach near Halifax. It’s has very limited parking so best to go early. People bring their dogs, however they need to be kept in a leash. It’s a long walk from the road parking along the boardwalk until you get to the beach . It’s spectacular. Long and wide sandy beach. Nice waves if you like body surfing or are a surfer. Lots of families, teenagers/ people of all ages. Be aware there are no facilities on site. Best to pack a picnic and snacks before you come. The closest convenience store is a few minutes drive away. Great views, awesome beach !

Beautiful Beach
May 2019 • Couples
We went to this beach on a rainy day to walk along with it and see the waves and storm. Very little parking - only four spots. It is also a makeout point as we encountered two cars full of teenagers fooling around in them. The boardwalk to the beach is beautiful. It is so sandy and would be perfect in the summer. It stretches as far as the eye can see. It rivals Wasaga in Ontario. It was nice for a long stroll along. Even in the rain and storm, it was beautiful to see the crashing waves and to walk along it. A must see if you are in the Halifax area.

The PERFECT beach to walk your dog! Great spot at low tide! Not much parking but worth the extra walk!

Beautiful boardwalk to the beach
Sep. 2018 • Family
Beautiful board walks and beach. Lots of sand. Corner store nearby. There isn’t a lot of parking so be prepared to walk a few minutes to the beach.

Great beach, hard to get to
Aug. 2018 • Family
Fabulous family friendly beach with sand and waves. Carpark is only tiny so people park down the side of the road, which makes for quite a trek sometimes! Long boardwalk to the actual beach as well.
If you are with young children and an extra adult you can drop them off and have the driver do the walk only but strongly advise taking a backpack or two with everything you need!
There are no facilities at all at the beach or in the carpark so go with swimsuits on and toilets used already!
Take all food and water for the day as there are no shops within walking distance either.
Despite all of this, it's still worth going! Honest!

Nice beach - no facilities
Jul. 2018 • Couples
We loved stopping by this lovely little beach as we drove up the eastern coast of Nova Scotia. There was a nicely kept boardwalk to go over the dunes; there was limited parking since it's at the end of a residential road. The lupines were in bloom, so it was picturesque just driving down the road as well. Nice sand and not super busy.
