Prince Edward Island Day 13 ~ The Northwest Corner of The Central Coast

It was another beautiful day here on Prince Edward Island, so we geared-up for some more beach time in an area we have yet to explore ~ the northwest corner of the Central Coast. 

First, we stopped at Willow Bakery & Cafe in Stanley Bridge for a bite to eat - it's a bakery in what once was a church! 

 

We shared a ham & cheese scone and Brad had a cinnamon roll with a brown-butter cream-cheese frosting - both were pretty good. It was also the "best coffee so far on this trip," according to Brad.

We drove along highway 20 and enjoyed some of (what we think are) the prettiest views so far in the island ~ and that is saying a lot as we have been enjoying amazing views all along....



 

 We also passed (and not for the first time) an oyster farm.....

 

We meandered without any real destination and happened upon Thunder Cove Beach ~ it was lovely!

 

We walked and came upon some cool sandstone formations and walked on-and-around them.........




 

We then drove to Cabot Beach Provincial Park ~ a lovely provincial park with beach access and warmer water than yesterday ~ we were actually able to go past our hips! 😆

 

The water was super shallow - one had to walk out quite far to get to waist-deep waters. 

 

We drove around some more, at times just taking any 'ole road to see what was there ~ like  hay farm with a very organized hay-baler-person. 

 

 

Then it was full-circle back to Stanley Bridge to go to Carr's Oyster Bar where we once again split a dinner of Pan Fried Haddock. So far we like the one we shared at The Landmark Oyster House in Victoria-by-the-Sea the best. 

We did not get any pics of the place, only Suzanne's yummy Raspberry Spritz!😋


 

However, we did get some pictures of the Stanley Bridge ~ yet another place the people of PEI enjoy jumping into the water!

 

The day ended with yet another Cow's ice cream visit ~ we are getting smarter ~ instead of waiting in the loooong line of people, we purchased a pint to take home and share!
