Local Area Recreation Near Borden / Summerside KOA Journey

We are one of very few campgrounds located on the south shore of PEI. The beaches near here are ideal for children and adults alike who like to swim or just hang out near the water. The waters of the south shore are warmer and calmer. During low tide, you can walk amongst the sand bars and take in the authentic beauty of PEI. Chelton Beach and the Argoyle Shore Provincial Day Parks are a must see!
