Big Island Beach is a long white and pebbled beach stretching for kilometres fronting Northumberland Strait and looking out across at Prince Edward Island, Canada. The beach is an ideal beachcombing destination and at low tides sand bars and shallow waters appear out of nowhere. It is a must-do beach in Pictou County, Nova Scotia.
Big Island Beach adventures, and activities most enjoyed includes beachcombiing, dog walking, swimming, frisbee and sightseeing.
Because it is one of the longest sandy beaches in the region. For those of us who take great joy in beachcombing in bare feet for many kilometres, in the sunshine gathering our thoughts, this beach fits the bill.
