Reviews of Sandspit Cavendish Beach (Travel Agency)

Melissa Arsenault

A must visit spot if you are coming to PEI with children. It is a little expensive for a single day; however, they offer exceptional value if you're planning on getting the week pass for here and the water park. There is a lot to do for all ages as well. Both our kids (2yrs old and 8yrs old) had more then enough rides that they were able to go on. The only thing I would change would be that bracelets extend to ALL rides including the Go Karts.

Sandspit is a small but fun amusement park catering to tourists in Cavendish. It's great for the kids (all 5 in our group LOVED coming here for a day) it tuckered them out and they enjoyed the rides..over and over again. Some of the adults played a few rounds of mini golf and it was a lot of fun. It's simple but a really nice way to spend part of a day or a few hours. We went back after dinner and it was a treat to see all the rides lit up. As some reviewers have mentioned, it is a bit dated but still a great time. I loved that it wasn't too busy and there was barely a wait for rides and games.

My daughter and I went on a Sunday. We had a blast! Roller coaster line was 15 mins long. They were only running one coaster at a time. The drop zone ride was super fun! Go karts cost 8 dollars each or 10 dollars for a double if your child isn't big enough.

Great spot to take the family but need new attentions every few years I think to make it more appealing to locals

What a fun trip, remember to reserve your times before you arrive as it is needed at this time.

Booked our tickets online before going. Very easy. Kids had a great evening bouncing from ride to ride. Always a fun part of any PEI trip.

Visited on a busy summer day with friends. Turned out to be fun although the water was cold. The red sand are spectacular to see. Would absolutely go back again.

Great selection of rides for kids 36"-48". Not too crowded, never a long wait. The giant slides and the train were the biggest hit. Mom and dad enjoyed the iced coffee. We also had lunch at the canteen but I'd suggest skipping the fries and bringing some fruit and veggies in a cooler in your car. Staff were very pleasant and helpful!

It's an awesome place to take the family and let the children and yourselves have a great time. Definitely going back. If you haven't been there it's place to go and explore and have a great time with the family and friends.

This place is great for kids. Specifically older than toddlers. I have a wide range of kids from 2-10 and the 2 year old was upset when he couldn't get on some rides like the bumper boats even when accompanied by a parent. My older kids loved the rides. Keep an eye on moving parts though, when I was there the carousel was just greased and I got grease over a brand new shirt I just bought. My son also got it all over his leg. When I mentioned it to the operator she was quick to clean it though. Lots of fun rides, great way to spend an afternoon.

Just went to do go kart racing with my brothers, the karts could use some serious upgrading, the belts slip like crazy when going uphill, and you can stay wide open the whole time. Also there’s no suspension and the track is ruff so it literally beats the poop right out of you, check your pockets! Still fun but 1 round is definitely enough!

Pre booking tickets was easy and the best way to go. We got to choose from the morning afternoon session or evening session. Staff were helpful and very friendly. The rides are great and it was a wonderful way to spend the afternoon

It's nice local amusement park good for a few hours of entertainment. However, it has one of the worst mini golf courses we've ever tried. The sides are too low, so everyone was losing balls off the course. The course is not remotely flat, so the ball moves all over the pace.

It was a fun 3 hours. They are handling COVID very well. Right now everyone has to pay the $20 + tax to get in, you can't wonder around for free like you used to be able to do. It's good value because I went on 7 rides + the excellent 18 hole mini golf course. Food options are poor but you can take your own food in and you can leave and return, which means you can find food at many places locally. It's a well-managed amusement park. We went on a Sunday in late July and there were no line-ups for any rides.

We had a fantastic time. Lots of rides for all ages. The reason I didnt give 5 stars is: you have to pay for the carnival games and go karts that aren't already included in the price of $23 per person (including very young children), they were understaffed so not every ride had an attendant so we missed out on rides, and the tickets and the website said it closed at 6 pm yet in reality they closed at 4 pm.

First time experiencing PEI and the amazing Sandspit! I had an absolutely amazing time with my boyfriend and his sisters family!! Highly recommend to anyone who enjoys carnivals and rides!!

Sandspit was a hit for our kiddos, they absolutely loved the rides and all rides were operating as expected (no rides were down). Facilities were well maintained however there were a few rides/games that one individual had to operate due to limited staff. However we are at the end of the season so I expect many have gone back to school as most if not all are college or high school students. All in all we had a great time and can’t wait to visit again next year.

It's is a fun place to visit but there aren't many rides. With the new covid regulations it's so much better . The lines are short and you get right on or the very next turn. Wish the go karts were included in the price. Over all fun for the whole family.

Went as a family of four (for this the bracelets are the way to go) and we got our money's worth...with the exception (and why I give 4 out of 5 stars) we paid $92 for bracelets but they did jot cover the cost of go-carts (I spent an additional $32 to cover 5 go-cart trips). All in all however we had a blast. For a small roller coaster theirs is fun as heck. Went on it multiple times, ferris wheel gives views of the ocean to the North and the drop tower was a hit with our oldest.

An amazing bunch of rides for all ages. Reasonable line ups and prices. Feel free to bring a picnic.

This is a great place to bring your kids, the young as well as the young at heart! During Covidtide, you MUST make reservations in advance, which we found out the hard way. One good thing about buying in advance is that you get a bracelet for unlimited rides, but in order for parents to enter the park, you need to buy the pass as well for them. Still not a bad deal really. Kids LOVED IT!

Lisa Jones

Really fun way to spend a few hours. Lots of rides and pretty fun for the entire family. Bracelet gets you access to most rides, the racing cars is separate but lots of fun.

Brittany Shipley

The city has limited options and can add more entertaining games. I liked the go cart, prices were reasonable. And I like the options of charge. The city was small enough that you can completely complete your visit for very short time. …

David Campbell

Very understaffed. Rides needs to be refreshed, as there are no new ones in the last 20 years. Kids loved the bumper boats. Don't order the fries, as they are charred.

Auto Teck

Sandspit is a great diversion for the day. As an amusing park it does not have he big rides you will find at other marquee locations. However, it is a great option to let the kids run loose for an afternoon. …

Jeff Neven

My 7 year old daughter had fun. We had a good time together. Getting two all-access wrist bands was the way to go. Luckily the crowd was small and we got there as soon as they opened so getting on all the rides was fast and easy. Limited selection on rides and "attractions" but a decent day for the dollar.

Great spot to enjoy the day with family or friends. Covid precautions were done safely and effectively.

clare marr

Awesome place. The price should include all rides and features. Some rides are not geared up for big and tall men and women

Ab J

Clean, well kept up facilities and rides. It's been the same pretty much since I was a teenager (an eon ago), but the kids still have a good time.
