Other area attractions...
Some of the best beaches on the Island are within easy driving distance with few matching the Singing Sands. (The high silicone content causes the sand to squeak underfoot and so you produce the singing sounds with the rhythm of your walk.)

Basin Head Fisheries Museum is just down the road; Elmira, the start of the Confederation trail is 9 km east; North Lake, the tuna and lobster fishing port on the north side is 12 km; and the East Point Lighthouse is 14 km away.

The “Singing Sands” beach topped PEI entries (and Basin Head Beach and Fisheries Museum was a runner-up!) in the CBC’s Seven Wonders of Canada competition in 2009. Its popularity in the voting outperformed the comparative population numbers for the Province.

PEI, Canada’s smallest Province, boasts a total population of almost 141,000 (.42% of Canada’s) yet received .75% of the CBC’s online vote. Every summer the Island population swells and the Singing Sands is no longer the Island’s best-kept secret.

Getting here is easy...
Kingsboro is an area, not a village, overlooking Basin Head and the Northumberland Strait beyond. We are 11 km (7 mi.) east of Souris on the south side of the highway, Rte #16, (Civic Number: 2518 East Point Road). We are just past the turn-off to Basin Head, the access point for the Singing Sands beach (2 km/1 mi.). Driving time from the Confederation Bridge is about two hours, through Charlottetown. Driving time from the Nova Scotia ferry (Wood Island) is about one hour.
