Visitors can explore the breathtaking scenery and support the park’s recovery from storm damage with early bird rates.
In anticipation of the 2023 operating season, Parks Canada has announced discounted early bird season entry passes for Prince Edward Island National Park (Canada).
This opportunity allows visitors to enjoy unlimited access to the park’s beautiful beaches, scenic trails, and visitor services and facilities at reduced prices.
Despite the damage caused by post-tropical storm Fiona in September 2022, the park remains a stunning destination that showcases its resilience and adaptability.
Visitors will be treated to breathtaking views and witness the park’s rejuvenation as new growth emerges following the storm. In a recent news release, the park expressed gratitude for the public’s patience during repair efforts.
As part of the park’s ongoing recovery, officials urge visitors to refrain from walking on the dunes, including the areas where new “baby dunes” are beginning to regenerate.
By respecting these guidelines, guests can help to support the delicate ecosystems and contribute to the park’s long-term health.
Early bird season passes are available from April 1 to June 15. The discounted family/group pass costs CA$52.25, while adult and senior passes are available at CA$21 and CA$18.25, respectively.
Admission for youth aged 17 and under remains free. Passes can be obtained at the Ardgowan National Historic Site in Charlottetown, online at parksorders.ca, or specific park locations following their opening dates.
Funds collected from entrance fees are directly invested in Parks Canada’s activities and visitor facility improvements, ensuring guests can enjoy top-notch experiences at the park.
Stanhope and Cavendish Campgrounds will open for the season on June 13, with entrance gates and the Greenwich Interpretation Centre opening on June 6. Early bird passes can also be purchased at these locations until June 15.
By taking advantage of the early bird discounts, visitors can immerse themselves in the park’s natural beauty and contribute to its recovery, ensuring that future generations can enjoy Prince Edward Island National Park for years.
