Panmure Island Lighthouse
When its 4-storey, gabled window lighthouse was built in 1853, Panmure Island, (15 kilometres east of Montague and just north of Gaspereaux), was still surrounded by water. Today, the secluded land spit, lined with some of the province’s most beautiful white sand beaches, is joined to the mainland by a paved causeway. The road provides access to Panmure Island Provincial Park, with a fully-serviced campground, boat launching area and bicycle rentals. Beach-goers can choose between the “bay side” and the “ocean side,” where long stretches of sand dunes form an idyllic backdrop to the sea. In summer, visitors can tour the historic Panmure Island lighthouse, still in operation.
Panmure Island Pow Wow: Each year in mid-August, up to 5,000 visitors converge on Panmure Island for the Mi’Kmaq Pow Wow, hosted by the Prince Edward Island’s Abegweit First Nation. Drumming, dance, crafts and healing ceremonies are all part of the annual public event. |
