Reviews of Souris Beach Gateway Park (Spa)

Kristin Ingersoll

Come here for sea glass! You will find more than any one person would want to collect! Beach was quite nice, and the shops right along the beach were great.

Arlene French

Great, clean beach

Sharon Cormier

Lobster Shack!

David Wice

Nice Breeze here

Perfect spot for an evening walk or to rent paddle boards or kayaks for a paddle. Pro tip: go when the tide's out.

David Woods

Beautiful place, quite.

Suzie Carriere

Not really a tourist area, but the food was awesome and the beach was beautiful!

Jayme Cuzzort

Beautiful spot

Q.K. Lawson

Took a very nice lady here. Wouldn't have gone without her. Lots of sea glass to be found. Wear some shoes cause some of it is still sharp. But it can be a nice walk with someone.

Trevor Demain

Great for finding sea glass!

Define Reality1 (Definereality1)

Great beachcombing!

Natasha Frank

Beautiful spot

J Chan

The picturesque view from the stand is breathtakingly tranquilizer. The gateway to Souris city forces any passersby to at least stop at this spot. By the highway, it might be a bit unsuitable for people asking for a peaceful noise free environment. The sunset ???? view is the incident i liked most about this place.

Anuj Sood

Oysters and a lobster roll at the Lobster Shack! Yum! ???????? August 2021

Robert Boyer

Lobster shake a must!

Bruno “Gadjetzor” L

Quaint,but alive with charm!

Kelvin Au

The best Lobster roll on earth!!

Mark MacDonald

Nice beach for being so close to a town centre. Shops are nearby where kayaks can be rented and ice cream/lobster can be bought. However, don't make this a destination for a long trip - there are better beaches all over the place.

Brett Thompson

Nice place for clam digging

Jim Fowler

The Basin Head was fun, The Lazy River was very excited

Gail Corcoran

Beautiful

Pam Kozak

I had the most delicious lobster roll at the Lobster Shack. I was disappointed that they were unable to honor the "Food Island" tourism promotion card, but they said it should be up and running in five to ten business days. Today is July 16.

Kenneth Villard

Under recognized but with beautiful vistas and views that all should enjoy.

Jean Béland

(Translated) Beautiful (Original) Très beau

Roseanne Mossey

Beautiful views! There is a splash pad and little playground for kids. This isn't a beach with alot of sand to sit out in. More of tide pools for kids to play in and wet sand. I didn't see any type of ramp to the beach either. There is also lots of signs about glass and metal garbage as this was once a dump site. Nice stop with older kids.

Evelyn Lush

Its really pretty and you can enjoy a ice cream while walking on the beach . The ice cream stand is small but has lots of flavors to choose from. It's as greet rest stop to get out and stretch your legs because its located right along the highway....

danielle pepin

(Translated) Very beautiful and welcoming (Original) Très beau et accueillant

Diane Baker

OMGOSH what a hidden gem. Major offroading to get there but worth the road less traveled

Andre Macinnis

BEAUTIFUL PLACE!!!!

Madison McGinnis

Nice chill spot!

R dc

Still the best beach in Canada. Lifeguards posted first the swimmers jumping off the channel walls and the bridge. One of Canada's best local traditions. Free parking, lots of shopping kiosks, food, clean bathrooms, - no showers as of this writing (Summer of 2021). All good!!

David Munro

Gorgeous spot!

Chris Nicholson

Used to be much nicer without all the shops and things their now.

Andria Leaman

This is a nice beach..fairly popular stopping place as it's just off the road. I was there at low tide and could walk out quite far on the Sandbars. You can watch the ferry leaving for the Iles de la Madeleine from there.

Angela Wade

Good apps

bodha jac

(Translated) Good lobster roll. I caught a few scales in my lobster though. It's still quite unpleasant! Served with plain crisps. Fast and effective! (Original) Bonne guédille aux homards. J'ai pogné quelques écailles dans mon homard par contre. C'est quand même assez désagréable! Servi avec chips nature. Rapide et efficace!

Nathan Mannett

What an amazing trip we had. As we were collecting sea glass with our youngsters, a local dropped by, handed over her haul to the kids and told us the tiny pieces were called "Mermaid Tears" - lovely. We had a wonder week in Souris and got a kick out of the beautiful Bald Eagle who perched in the same place each day.

Michael Abramczyk

Good to do paddle and kayaking rides.

Gloria Brunn

Good small beach. Ample parking. Nothing much to do though.

A view of the water from your windshield. Sterile. Not particularly inviting. A roadside pulloff.

Maryse Vallée

(Translated) It is the most beautiful beach we have been to i-p-e. We loved it, the sand is white, the beach is clean, the water is clear. The only downside is the snack on site ... We waited more than an hour to have our order (4 hotdog 1 fries). Plan your lunch! (Original) C'est la plus belle plage où nous sommes allés à l' i-p-e. Nous avons adoré, le sable est blanc, la plage est propre, l'eau est clair. Le seul bémol c'est le casse-croûte sur place ...

Petersdustin82 @gmail.com Hh

Very clean with huge, majestic waves.

Jana McCormack

Nice beach but need to be careful

Peter Melnyk

This is a small beach in comparison to others in PEI, and generally not for swimming. We went there to look for 'sea glass'. We did find some good pieces, but there's A LOT of regular glass pieces, small stones and weeds on this beach. Wearing footwear is a good idea. I can see why people rave about this spot for sea glass. The tide seems to bring a lot of stuff in there. The water is pretty dirty and debris filled. Not a good swimming/sun bathing beach. You're essentially only going there to find sea glass. There is a store there that will make jewelry of the sea glass you find, or you can purchase premade sea glass jewelry. There's also a little diner with free WiFi.

Barbara Hickey

Beautiful spot

Arlie MacDonald

What a transformation here. Wonderful place to relax. Nice shops to grab a bite to eat or pick up a souvenir. The new deck is awesome. Splash park for the little ones. Souris is doing it right at the beach.

Luis Marquez

Spotless & well groomed, with all the amenities you can imagine and reasonably priced

Joel Holtz

Great beach. Plenty of sand and surf for everyone. A short walk and you can be all alone on a wide beach with big sky. And there's great ice cream and cold lobster right by the parking lot.

cheryl johnson

Not all that, not sure why people rave about it.

Rob Konkle

Fun place to collect sea glass but that's about it. PEI has better beaches.

Laurie Senra

Love Souris beach. Find good shells and rocks. Spot a hermit crab or 2 every time I walk the beach. Saw this giant snail on our last beach walk beforw returning to Ontario. Already missing the sand between my toes.

Nice place to shop. Reasonable prices. Beautiful jewelry made from sea glass.

Auto Teck

If sea glass is your thing..this beach has it all. It seems to be endless to walk but it provided such entertainment for our children without worry of losing them. They were always within sight and parking was more than adequate. There were a few food options and bathrooms on site. A great day well spent.

Angela Deknibber

Great spot to pick seaglass and seapottery had a great time!

Brent

Beautiful beach easy access, wonderful to swim and great place to take a walk. There is a lovely park for the kids as well an ice cream stand. Some fantastic shops to enjoy and the Lobster Shack which offers a delicious Seafood menu, guaranteed to satisfy your taste buds.

One of my favorite beaches, especially for swimming. Bathrooms, parking, and multiple food venues

Zachary Burlap

Lovely spot to walk the boardwalk and do some looking in the little shops they have there .

Ronald Haigh

This park could be missed as it is just outside of Souris. When the tides go out it is for a nice to walk out, some folks will even try their hand at clam digging. You can enjoy a walk along the sand and or is it the little shops along the boardwalk. Even put your order in for some fresh Lobster

Brenda Nichols

A good adventure along the way. Difficult finding glass as displayed in the little Shop on the board walk. Highly recommend wearing something on your feet as there is a lot of sharp pieces of glass.

Erin Jones

Need maybe another food service and drinks...nice though...beach lovely...plenty busy. Doug

Nick Labrie

Cute little shops. Lobster shack had wonderful seafood ie. Lobsters. Lobster roll is delicious. Walk on beach and watch those digging for clams when tide is out.

Robin Langston

Beautiful place

Joe Hazelden

Lots of seaglass and kite surgi g

Julie Brisson

Warm shallow water great to swim in, but wear swim shoes because of the seaglass and pottery! Places to change and shower and eat right at the beach as well!
