This river beach and provincial park in the Georgetown Royalty community is the largest in the eastern part of the island and is jam packed with activities. It has a rich history too, Brudenell was an Acadian settlement before it was burnt to the ground by the British in the 18th century. There are plenty of exercising opportunities in the riverfront pathway, walking trails and the Confederation trail (train tracks that have been reverted into a trail that goes from one end of PEI to the other) is 1 km away. There is a heated and supervised outdoor pool, but the river beach does not have lifeguard supervision. The park offers evening activities for kids, along with a playground and even kayaking, canoeing, and horseback riding! If any of the onsite attractions are not appealing, nearby there are two 18 hole golf courses and the Garden of the Gulf Museum offers guided tours. The park also has essential amenities like showers, washrooms, laundry, picnic tables and fireplaces.
Keep your distance from other people.
Practicing social distancing is essential right now. Follow the advice of the health experts. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Heading to the beach should only be considered an option if social distancing practices can be followed. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter the efforts to curb the virus’ spread.
