Review:

Located at Basin Head on Prince Edward Island, Singing Sands Beach is a beautiful white-sand beach known quite literally for its singing sands. A phenomenon scientists say is due to a high silica content in the sand, when walked on, the white sand produces an intriguing sound, many attribute to singing while others say it’s more akin to squeaking. However the sound is made, it’s a true delight to sit on the shores of this beach listening to the whimsical notes made by the foot traffic of others. The beach also has a small boardwalk and a trail that travels through rare dune and fen ecosystems. Singing Sands fills up quickly during the summer and on weekends; swimming here is unsupervised.
