Prince Edward Island National Park, National park in Rustico, Canada.

The park extends along 60 kilometers of coastline, featuring red sandstone cliffs, white sand beaches, and extensive dune systems on Prince Edward Island.

Parks Canada established this protected area in 1937, preserving traditional Mi'kmaq territories and early French colonial settlements dating back to the 1720s.

The park includes multiple walking trails connecting to literary locations referenced in Lucy Maud Montgomery's novels, particularly near North Rustico and Cavendish sections.

Access to beaches and facilities requires entrance fees from June to September, with restrictions on pets during bird nesting season from April to October.

The park contains three separate sectors divided by coastal inlets, protecting endangered Piping Plovers that nest along its pristine shoreline.
