Here's just a small sample of the many things to see and do along the Points East Coastal

The eastern end of the Island is a great place for families to explore and discover a different aspect of the Island's history. Visit Orwell Corner Historic Village or Roma at Three Rivers National Historic Site to take a step back in time. Experience life on a settler's farm at Orwell and life at a trading post at Roma. Staff are dressed for the part and pleased to offer a fun learning experience for children.

Near the eastern tip of the Island, visit the Elmira Railway Museum for a history lesson about the Island's railroads. Here, you can ride the miniature train and view one of Atlantic Canada's largest model train collections - always a hit with kids!

Afterwards, let the kids run or swim at Basin Head Provincial Park, where you can hear the sand sing! A high silica content in the sand makes a squeaking noise as it rubs together. The faster the kids run, the more the sand will sing!

If you're looking for a good spot for a nature hike, travel to the PEI National Park at Greenwich. Enjoy views of the Island's highest dunes, set amongst a beautiful wetland. Here, the interpretation centre has an awesome interactive display about the park's unique ecosystem.
