Basin Head Fisheries Museum

Perched on the shores of the Northumberland Strait, Basin Head Fisheries Museum tells the tale of PEI’s historical inshore fishery. Visit the Cannery for an authentic glimpse of the fishing industry through captivating displays and exhibits. Take a leisurely stroll on the boardwalk and enjoy the white “singing” sands. Check out Sun, Sand, and Surf, the museum’s gift shop filled with local crafts and beach necessities. If you crave something sweet, head to The Scoop for ice cream treats and refreshing drinks!
