Tea Hill Beach

Stratford, Queens County · C1B 2W2

A rocky red-sand shore just east of Charlottetown where locals now report more sea glass than at Souris.

About Tea Hill Beach

A red-sand and rock shoreline by Tea Hill Park in Stratford, on the sheltered Northumberland side near the mouth of Charlottetown Harbour. Islanders link its glass to the nearby harbour and a long history of summer cottages along this shore.

Sea glass at Tea Hill Beach

Whites, greens and browns are the everyday finds. Go at low tide when the sandbars are exposed and watch your footing on rocks hidden under the sand; Keppoch Beach next door is worth adding.

Visiting Tea Hill Beach

Safety
Check the tide times before you go and head out on a falling tide, so you're never cut off. Keep away from the bottom of cliffs, wear sturdy shoes on rocks, and only take sea glass and other man-made rubbish: pebbles, sand and shells should stay on the beach.
