    My favorite beach on PEI. Connects to several other smaller beaches. Not as busy as Cavendish. Wheelchair accessible. Indoor private showers and locking changing rooms. Clean and BEAUTIFUL.

    A very clean beach with comfortable toilette and washrooms .. It's so good for a long walk on the warm sand to enjoy the fresh air from the sea.

    The Brackley Beach extends very far - there's a parking lot and washrooms on the south side of the road. There's a boardwalk crossing across the dunes, plenty of stairs, and hundreds of metres of very clean sandy beaches.

    Had a beautiful evening at Brackley Beach with some friends. Highly recommend this beach to anyone visiting the island. The water stays very shallow for a while (tide may have been in?) so it's very warm, but no jelly fish in sight. We arrived after the park closed at 6pm, which meant no entry fee but also no supervision or access to the washrooms. We knew that would likely be the case though!

    Long beaches. Warm light colored sand. Wheelchair accessibility down to the sand. Restrooms. It's a busy beach, but it reaches out far to the left and far to the right. A lovely spot to chill for a day. Great spot to bring the wee ones as well. If you haven't been bit have thought about it. Just go. BTW, when Google Maps says you're there, you're actually not. Keep going straight 2 or 3 Km's. Now you're there.......Enjoy.

    Beautiful beach. Accessible!!! Respect! Showers (free of charge), bathrooms, foot rinsing area with warm water (thank you solar panels). The ocean is clean and the beach is vast. Life guards in the marked swim area.

    Continues to be our favourite beach with over 40 years of personal experience. Expansive, natural, huge dunes, and well maintained. Clean, large washrooms and plenty of parking. The Park staff do an amazing job.

    We avoided this popular beach during the tourism months of July and August as we like more privacy. September after labour day has been incredible. Huge long as white sand beaches protected by large sand dunes and there's been hardly anyone else there. Water is colder than on the south shore, but it is clear and beautiful. Great accessibility with stairs and a ramp down to the beach, and then there's a hard roll out track across the sand to the ocean for wheelchairs or anyone else who has difficulty walking in the sand.

    Beautiful Charlottetown beach, a must visit. Clean and inviting atmosphere. Sorry to see shack for drinks, snacks and souvenir closed at this time and not sure if a permanent state. Affordable inexpensive daily rate.

    Very long beach. Great for walks. Large swim area with lifeguards. Run by parks Canada so it might be worthwhile to buy a seasons pass. Can get windy with Northerly winds meaning sand can get kicked up into everything including your hair. Be prepared for this. Bring beach umbrella or shade with appropriate pegs.

    Super love this place - Super clean, toilets are accessible. But! It’s always packed Or atleast whenever we go, which is not really a bad thing. Im just not fond of packed places. 🥰🥰

    Wonderful place. The beach is clean. I would go back there for sure.

    Beautiful beach with dunes within the national park. It wasn't super busy and there's loads of space to sprawl out. Nice facilities across the street where you can park to get to this particular beach.

    I heard about this beach a while ago but I got chance to go there today and it was too great experience you can enjoy the sound of ocean(waves) you can walk around the waves and also do swimming with caution because sometimes waves go slight high...

    Only $16.75 for a family to enter. Parking near the beach. Bathrooms/warm showers/ clean beach/ place to clean feet/ place to purchase snacks/ life guards on duty/ very polite person working at permit booth.

    I used to drive by Brackley and go to one of the Stanhope beaches but lately I have been enjoying Brackley for its ease of entrance, great parking and long beautiful beach!!

    Beautiful! A warm sandy beach perfect for swimming in the absolutely freezing water. Didn’t stop us though. The dunes were gorgeous and glad they are protected.

    Beautiful red sand beach less than a half hour from Charlottetown. Great beach for strolling, swimming or splashing (if you don't mind the cooler waters off PEI) and cycling. They have a nice bike path, about 14 miles out and back, the runs adjacent to the beach. There is a small fee for beach access, but the restrooms, changing rooms and fresh water make it worth it. They keep the park clean and pristine. if you visit, please help keep it that way.

    A nice little spot, boardwalk access across the dunes to the beach. Large parking area and facilities allow for easy access. The trail continuing West was closed as of September 2023 in part due to the preceeding years storm. A nice paved trail runs the length of the seashore on the inland side of the dunes with views of the bay, sea, lighthouse, and ending close to Dalvay.
