Cabot Beach Provincial Park

Cabot Beach Provincial Park is a coastal park on Malpeque Bay featuring red sandstone cliffs and wide sandy beaches. The grounds include designated areas for swimming, picnicking, and exploring nature.

The area became a gathering place for scouting and youth organizations that held major events here. This role continues to influence how the park functions today.

The place is named after John Cabot, the explorer who charted these coastal waters in the 15th century. Visitors can sense this maritime heritage through interpretive signage and the landscape itself.

The park is easily explored on foot with pathways leading to different beach sections and viewpoints. There are adequate parking areas and facilities at the main entrances.

The park served as a filming location for scenes from a classic work of Canadian literature. This draws fans of the book to visit and see where their favorite story was brought to screen.
